Smile New to Classic Oldsmobile

Hello,
Just purchased a 1970 Olds 442 hoping to find good info on here and posibly some good friends who love 442's like my wife and I do.
First question, on my trim Tag there is a 2 to the right of the Body by Fischer and above the BDY I see 1 or 2's in some of the pictures on-line but no explanation.
PDF of trim tag pic attached, the system gets to 90% on my picture and freezes.
Thanks

Welcome. Each GM assembly plant used slightly different formats on the cowl tag, so it would help us provide more accurate info if you posted a photo of the entire cowl tag, not just a corner of it. And have you tried reducing the file size of your photos before attaching them?

Here is the full tag, When I try to upload it goes to 90% freezes, I can attach PDF's without a problem, The picture file size is 385KB so pretty small

Were you able to open up the PDF of the Full tag to see the 2 in the upper right corner?
Thanks for the help!

Not Sure - but it may be related to which assembly line the car went down (?)

I read that on here (iirc) somewhere but can't find it +-

or related to which shift the car was built (again not sure)

Some one here will tell you - at some point
