I own Oldsmobile Dynamic 88 Celebrity Sedan 1966 in original condition and I found in the car 2x built the original sheet..

can someone decode the original built sheet, 1966 Oldsmobile?
I can decode the codes of equipment, but others do not.

Thank you

 

If you post the codes or the entire sheet. We have some members that can help you.

 

Please help decoding my Build sheet my Olds Dynamic 88 1966.
Thank you

 

Wow, did you notice the 3.42 rear axle ratio?

 

Yes I noticed, but in contemporary materials, this ratio is only with Heavy Duty Hydramatic transmission equipment and by code should not be here.

 

Well, the code listed in the "axle" box is QC which should be a 2.93 open. But there's no denying the 3.42 hand-written in the "axle number" box.

Interestingly, on my '67 Delmont build sheet the axle code indicates a 3.08 open, but the hand-written axle number is 2.78. My car did actually come with a 2.78 rearend gear, despite the factory literature indicating the 3.08 ratio was standard equipment.
I'd bet your car actually does have the 3.42 gear even though the literature indicates it "shouldn't".

 

What a cool piece of documentation! While I am far from the expert on such codes, I believe the "QC" in position 18 on this sheet would indicate a 2.93 open rear.

ON EDIT: I see I was beaten to the punch by one minute, and with some additional info provided above!

 

The only other thing I can be helpful about is the original color, which is Ocean Mist Poly (paint code K). The KK on your sheet indicates the car did not have a vinyl top (same color upper & lower body). If someone here has a salesman's folder they should be able to tell you what trim code 306 means.

 

By the way, my Delmont was also built at the Kansas city plant and contained a build sheet identical to yours under the back seat. I also found a small Fisher Body broadcast card under the carpet.

 

Yes Ocean Mist poly + interior Turquise
options fails: he car radio is the original built sheet but not included the code

EDIT: I have complete documentation: service book, protect-plate, manual, brochure, keys ..

 

Your radio was likely dealer-installed. The build sheet does not indicate a radio option. The proof is the ** in the antenna box, indicating there was no antenna installed at the factory.

 

Copper, your 2.78 though not standard was a call it "allowable" option, where the 3.42 gears were not supposed to be available with his UA base 2-bbl engine and non-heavy duty M40 trans. So I'd say it was less likely that 3.42s actually made it into the car. But Luke, please check it out! See what gears you have and check for the stamp on the axle tube, and let us know!

Yes, very cool find Luke! So that is 2 copies you have stuck together?
If you give me some time, I can decode almost all of it for you, certainly the interesting parts!

 

No I found two build sheet in the car, but there is one over the other.
1.Build sheet i found the other side of the fender - is very damaged
2.Build sheet i found inside the front seats - very cool

Please if you have the time to decode the build sheet. I am interested in codes 1, 8, 10 to 73 and 100th Thank you

 

Just to clarify, both were for your car?

 

Yes, it is my car, only new original paint + classic servise ( New brake, suspension, waterpump, belts etc. )

Were both build sheets for that car?, as sometimes build sheets for other cars made it into of them.

 

I believe that 1965 was the last year that 3:42's were offered on the Delta model line, so having them on your '66 from the factory would be rare.

 

3.42s were optional on the Deltas right though '67.
In '66 they were available on all the big cars (except the Toros and Jetstar 88s of course), but required the M41 Heavy Duty automatic.
'65 was the last year 3.42s were available with a manual trans, though.

 

you can code in my build sheet to identify?
Internet can not find anywhere trim 306 (interior, upholstered)


Sorry my English is not perfect :-)

 

I'm sorry, Luke. I didn't notice that you are from the CR in Europe. An extra special welcome to you!
306 is for Turquois bench seat interior.

I will be back later with a decode of your build sheet. Please send me you email, I'm at wmachine2shubes.net

You are doing fine with your English.

Look at your data plate, which is mounted on the cowl under the hood on the drivers side, it will be held on by two rivets and generally black in color. On this tag, on the left, there should be a "TR" on the tag this stands for trim, to the immediate right of TR is the code for your interior color, it will be three digits, for example: TR 980, which is black on the Cutlass model. Post the number here and we can tell you what the color is.
