App. build date of 67 442

----The 1967 442 I have has no trim tag. Don't know why it wasn't with the car. I would like to figure out the approximate build date and cant without the TT. The numbers after the M (Lansing built) are 260391. Can anyone help me with this??? Thanks in advance for any help......Bill S

Look at the backside of the speedometer.
There is often a date stamped in ink with a rubber stamp pad .
I don't know whether it is the date the speedo was made or the date it was installed in the car however .

----Thanks, Charlie,,, Unfortunately my gauge cluster came out of another 67 442 so no luck there. Is there any brake down of production numbers by the month of all 67 Cutlass's built in Lansing?......Bill S

build date

I'm restoring my instrument panel and it is stamped July 8 - 66 23 with a black ink stamp. my trim tag is 07C which is the 3rd week of july. without a trim tag you dont have much to go by. my stamp was on top of the plastic speedometer housing and would not be easy to see in the car.

----I know the provenance of this car. As well, I know its a W30 from former owners that I trust implicity. Not the best thing but enough for me! Thanks for bringing it up though......Bill S

If it is a real W30 Kurt Anderson would have some info on it I would guess. They were all documented with NHRA so Maybe you can find some info that way.

I have a none W30 67 442 built 09C Vin ends with 112319 Lansing built car.
