There are two ID tags on the firewall of my 47 Olds Two Door Sedanette, one on the far left and one closer to the middle.

Far left tag; Style# 4736070
Body# L 1822
Trim# 5
Paint# 79
TOP
ACC
They are in roughly those locations on the tag, and there are no digits behind the "TOP" or "ACC" labels. The "5" and the "79" are a little below their seemingly respective labels though, a little out of allignment.

Middle tag; Olds 78 61181

Can any one decipher the codes for me?

 

Year of make would narrow down the expertise range for us.

 

Sorry, 1947 Olds

 

47 = 1947
3607 = Dynamic Club Sedan, 5 Pass., 125"W.B
L 1822 = production #
5 = interior trim color and fabric (can't locate 5 ????)
79 = exterior paint would be Ivy Green Poly for '47

Middle tag shows

78 = model 8 cyl

That's all I can do maybe someone here or at http://forums.aaca.org/forum.php can finish the rest.

 

This may help with additional generic info on your car.

Thank you very much! Excellent link too. Don't have to get out there with a tape measure.

I've been operatiing under the notion that it has a 118 inch wheelbase.

Changes things a little!

 

You are very welcome my friend. Got pics?

Needs a lot of work.

Street rod material. It has a really badly done S10 frame conversion under it, so it's too far gone for a restoration.

It is fairly complete body and trim wise, and not a lot of rust.

 

That's a beauty to my eyes A little massaging and she will be a joy to cruise in

 

I wholeheartedly agree, it's a beauty!!

I see the diamond in the rough.
