Out of all you fellas that have 1970 teeners, have you ever established who is the elder statesman of the non-club? I like this kind of stuff.... |

Well, 0033 is a local car and I know the owner. I borrowed his documentation for a few weeks. Included the original service booklet, never used except for the dealer stamp, the original owner, VIN and engine # and the date of delivery. He had saved a ton of stuff. This was a homebuilt conversion GT. For most other cars I find the VIN and owner contact wherever I can, then ask questions. Been at it 30 years though. 4702903114 Built 01.70 chassis # 0319595 Chassis 95 built on the Monday 3rd week of 1970, so the middle of January the body was welded up and painted. Then in the next two weeks it was assembled, given a VIN, and went out the door. It was about twenty years ago that I collected enough chassis data to see the pattern and understand the date code. |
