Cool Find In My 1970 Convertible

So I found this card - and $0.56 - when I pulled the seat to check the wiring and clean the carpet. I am thinking it is a factory production card for the car since 38467 corresponds to a 455 98. I am leaving soon and have not dug thru the manual yet, so I may find this info later, but please let me know if there is a better resource to find what each field means.

Thanks!

It's the Fisher broadcast card. Followed the car down the assembly line.

508526 is the number to be concerned with. If it matches the underhood body data plate it's the right one for your car. This could have been either a Lansing or Linden NJ build though A01 suggests Lansing assembly line 1. Do your VIN and body plate indicate Lansing (M) or Linden (L)?

Job 272- 272nd car built on (Friday) July 3 1970. I'm a little leery of cars built around holidays but a Ninety Eight probably wouldn't see as much mischief by employees wanting to get away from work as a lower line car.

38467- Olds(3), Ninety Eight (84), convertible (67).

024- gold vinyl bench seat with center armrest

50- Bamboo paint
H- convertible top color, probably a medium tan

A42- 6-way electric power seat
C60- manual control airconditioning
U58- AM-FM stereo radio

Thank you so much. That is great info! As my grandfather used to drive the grand marshal of his towns 4th of July parade every year, it is oddly fitting that the car was finished on July 3... just in time! ;-)

LOL

Yeah, not sure if the dime was already in my pocket, or not. But good catch!
