442 UCODE --- NEED HELP WITH VIN AND COWL #'S

BigBertha442 · 02-11-2008, 02:20 PM

???????????Howdy All ??????????????

NEED HELP??????????

New to the olds world.
I just bought a 1972 Cutlass S HT Coupe 442.

Vin # 3g87u2r153242 on car also last 6 dig # on 455
and same on 400 tranny!
Any help on the vin would be great!!!!

I do have C code heads? What should they be ?

Cowl tag is

ST 72-33687 R 16644 BODY
TR 940 A51 75 B PNT
01C074

Would the value of this car be worth a lot more bringing it back to 100% original shape? Ground up? How can you get the build sheets? is there any place to get them?

BigBertha (My wifes name for this beauty) has the front and back sway bars - dual exh - cut out bumber - bucket seats with center console - automatic turbo 400

Thanks for you help!!!

Sal -

You should have GA heads for a '72. U is 250 net hp 455/TH400; R is Arlington, TX assembly plant.

75B is Matador Red paint with ablack top; A51 is bucket seats.
