When my Cutlass was painted many years ago, the paint shop removed the Manufacturers ID number decal from the drivers door. I was able to find a blank replacement one on line but I am not sure of what all the numbers are for. I attached a sample of one from the junk yard so my question is what do the numbers stand for on the second line. Can anyone help me please?

Any help will be greatly appreciated, Jim

Are you referring to the "GVWR" and "GAWR?" Those are just the car's weight measured various ways.

GVWR is "Gross Vehicle Weight Rating."

GAWR is "Gross Axle Weight Rating."

The sticker to the best of my knowledge is the factory sticker.. no GVWR or GAWR listed(should be convertible) not covert sorry

Where did you find the blank? How much was it? Mine is missing too and I wanted to replace it. Thanks.
