Post your dealer name and zone code
#321
According to the prior owner's Arizona title, the car's original title was issued on 5/18/1972 by the state of Ohio which was two days after the 5/16/1972 "in service" date on the POP. So I would say the evidence points to the 09-120 dealer code being different in 1972 than it was in 1985. Edit- I just did a mapquest of Rainelle WV to Ohio, its not a long drive at all. Maybe a two hour drive to from Rainelle to the Ohio border. About 4.5 hours to Columbus OH. So. . .
In any event, do you have suggestions on how/where I might be able to figure out this discrepancy?

Don't know the dealer code, but I bought my Alero at:
Faulnker Oldsmobile
9903 Bustleton ave
Philadelphia, PA 19115
Faulnker is a huge family of dealerships. They have helped me a lot with parts for both of my Olds's. I'm going to buy my next car from them. In fact, my Delta was bought there new in late 1984
Where the Olds lot was, it's now a Honda lot and that dealership there is a rip off

My '67 Delmont has a dealer emblem from Pearson Oldsmobile in Alvin, TX. From what I have found on the 'net, it later became Pearson Chevrolet-Oldsmobile and is now Ron Carter Automotive Group. Anyone have the zone/dealer code for this one?

Albertson was one of the drag racing Olds dealers and sponsored Oldsmobiles (and Oldsmobile-powered) cars in the SoCal drag circuit for many years.
Guy on AACA mentioned his first new car as a high school graduate. Ordered thru Walker Oldsmobile in Alexandria Louisiana.
Here's his story (David Coco, Winchester VA) :
"I was graduating high school in 1969, and my parents, being of modest means, offered me my choice of new cars as a graduation present. Of course, this didn't mean I could buy the most expensive of cars, but a modest means of transportation was not out of the question.
My father travelled quite a bit for a local company, and starting in the late 30's he'd buy an Oldsmobile through the company, and an Oldsmobile for my mother. This would occur every two years, give or take. I have a picture of my father at the local Oldsmobile dealership (Walker Olds in Alexandria, La., for you historians) taking delivery of his 25th new Oldsmobile, a 1955 Holiday coupe. So, I naturally was interested in Oldsmobile cars, of course. When it came time to pick out a car, I decided I wanted a 1969 Cutlass.
I was heading to LSU for an education, and hoped that the college stuff I had to do didn't interfere with that process.
Sitting down with my father's salesman, I started going down the list of how I wanted the car to be ordered.
Four door, not sporty, but sure makes carrying classmates around easier.
Three speed, or three on the tree, because by then I'd been driving a 1925 Dodge coupe and a 1931 Chevrolet for 3 years, and I liked to shift.
I wanted good gas mileage, so ordered, if I remember correctly, a 2.78 rear end (this was slightly before the energy crisis but such ratios were available, I got great gas mileage with that car, and every dollar not in the gas tank bought more beer...uh...food..at college) Wanted to know what my engine was doing, so ordered the instruments, which included a Tic-Tac-Tock, or something like that, a tachometer around a clock and full gauges, no idiot lights for me! And, I wanted to put my OWN 8-track tape unit in, so radio delete it was....
Dark blue, black vinyl top since that was the rage at the time. Plain hubcaps, not styled steel wheels for me!
So, car ordered. A few weeks go by, and I get a call from the manager of sales at the dealership. They'd had a call from the "factory". or more likely some office, asking if the car was already sold, NO WAY would that car be in inventory and sell! So yes, I said, that's what I want, and that's what I got.
In the 60's and 70's, there were a lot of different ways a car could be ordered. I'd be willing to bet that there were very few, if any, 1969 Oldsmobile three speed four doors 2.78 rear end full instruments radio delete hubcaps ever ordered, other than mine. It would now be an interesting car, but surely not valuable, as different doesn't always mean desirable."
