Chris, there are others on here who would be interested in the OF code for NA9 cars. Personally, I know five who would want one.
Al, thanks for posting that picture. The OF was on all A-body cars delivered in CA after Jan 1, 1970, not just 442s assembled in CA. It's a wider audience than you thought.
interesting. an OF code. looks like it's the same size as the others, just the two letter code and part number are different. I'll look into these further. A friendly reminder at grp442@yahoo.com wouldn't be a bad idea as I'm busy with a bunch of stuff.
So I'm investigating getting these decals done. While several well known parts vendors offer them, they list them for 68-72 (or even later). The first problem, they are year specific. The second, 68 was a silk screen, not a decal. The one vendor that offers the year specific ones, they aren't quite right.
From the 70 PIM (section 6 for those scoring at home) you can see the two letter code and the part number they should be. Not the NJ code most places list for sale as the "one size fits all".
Here is the 4bbl non OAI ones
and here is the OAI one
and here are a couple decals on original and unrestored 70 W-30s
So, I'm looking at getting three codes done right now
OI
OP
ON
all with their corresponding part nbrs
These will be done on 3M vinyl and will be as close to accurate as can be.
I'm curious of any feedback or interest if I follow through with this (ie you would buy one, although not sure on costs at this time). Note, I can probably do other codes for 70, but I believe the above three would be the most popular. If enough interest I would look into 69 codes next. Then perhaps 71 and 72.
