Another cowl tag to decipher
Something's fishy about this car. Guy says it was a 1972 442 4 speed w/ a 455. Just a frame and shell with a dash now. No engine or tranny. Can you please let me know what this cowl tag tells you?

*Not sure if it is an o(letter) or 0 (#) or if is even an O. Rivet cuts it off.
Any help would be appreciated.

33687 is the body style and LAN means it was built in Lansing.
Ask Wmachines to decode the rest. i dont have my info here right now!!

33687 is Cutlass "S" Holiday hardtop, if it was equipped with the 442 appearance package can really only be determined with original paperwork. As the 442 was no longer a seperate model in '72.

65 = Flame Orange, B = Black vinyl top, A52 TR940 = Black vinyl bench seat. Is the VIN tag still on the dash? If it was an L75 455/ M20 4 speed in 1972, it will have a V in the VIN. If it was a W30 455/M20 it will have an X in the VIN. If it's a V code, please send info and pics for my registry page. Thanks.

No, but you would need a build sheet, sales order, window sticker, etc that says W-29 is the only way to tell if in fact it had the 4-4-2 appearance and handling package. Unless of course it was a W-30 then it would have an X in the VIN and be a 4-4-2 by default.
