"B" is for Baltimore and "K" is for Kansas City. 1 = Chevrolet 33 = Std 6-cyl Elky 34 = Std V-8 Elky 35 = Custom 6-cyl Elky 36 = Custom V-8 Elky 80 = 2-dr sedan pickup (Elky) 0-9 = Year Letter = Assembly plant Next numbers in VIN are sequential plant numbers
Custom Elkys had better trim and interior - like the difference between a 300/300 Deluxe and Malibu. Custom got the wood grain tailgate, wood grain dash strip, better seats, etc. See http://www.team67.com/1967/gallery/brochures/ec-5.jpg for an Elky brochure Dale McIntosh > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of John Nasta > Sent: Sunday, December 01, 2002 9:50 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: RE: [Chevelle-List] '69 Elky Pro Street > > > We both have 136809s.
