Body tags for two early 66 Toronados

Body built 09A = first week of September, body # 98 !!

Evidently my brother started parting out VIN 1011 w/o telling me
Consequently the pasenger side reclining seat is GONE...

:-(

Anyhow, here are a couple of EARLY Toronado body tags, play with them as you wish
Who knows what EUC is for? E body Unit Center?

What about all them lowest line characters?

The first one decodes to

Data Tag Decoder Results Year 1966 Make Oldsmobile Model Toronado Sports Coupe Custom Assembly Date First week of September Assembly Plant Euclid, OH Fisher Body Sequence
Lower Color Royal Blue Upper Color/Conv Top Royal Blue Interior Option Blue Cloth and Vinyl Reclining Strato Bench Seat w/Headrest Accessory Codes

Accessory Group 1
Tinted windshield and Windows
Column Shift Automatic
Power trunk release

Accessory Group 2
Air conditioning
Rear speaker

Accessory Group 3

Accessory Group 4

Accessory Group 5
Deluxe Seat Belts
However, it did not take the Y or the M in the first group or the 3P...Decoder has two Xs....I think the Y is power windows.

Second one is:

It also did not like 4V. I wonder what the passenger recliner code is?

I don't follow the '66s, but .....
the interior "TYPE" is in the trim code, (I don't have a reference for the -K) I have:

-D = strato bench w/folding armrest & headrests?
& I'll "assume"
-K = strato bench w/folding armrest, reclining RH seat & headrests

Toronados final assembly was Lansing, but the bodies were built in Euclid, Ohio - in the early '70s I toured the plant, a grade school field trip.
the early Toronados & I believe all the 55-'57 Nomad & Safari bodies were built by Fisher Body EUCLID, OH

(1)E = tinted glass - all
(1)X = power windows
(1)Y = power bench seat
(1)S = power locks
(1)M = cruise control


4F =LH remote mirror

GG paint on the second one is "trumpet gold metallic"
