043440 is nothing more than the production number at the plant in which it was built meaning that it was the 43,440th car to roll off the line in the 1970 model year. If you really want to know the exact time it was built look for a combo number/letter combo, something like 05D the numbers are

Not sure what that number is, but it's not a build code. A build code will look like this 12C- Twelfth month, third week. 01-12 are the months, A,B,C,D are the weeks. Rocky --- Mike Sanders [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Greetings all, I am brand new to this game. Just bought a 70 Malibu that

[Chevelle-list] teflon on tranny lines?

My TH350 is leaking a bit of fluid where the tranny cooling lines go into the trans. I tried tightening them but there is still a leak. Does anybody recommend Teflon tape or will it just melt? If not teflon, is there anything else I can use to help seal that gap? Thanks, John Nasta

Thanks Tom, Your info below set me straight. My 043440 turns out to be 04B 440. 2nd week of April of 70. Also, from your links I was able to tell I had also mis copied the BDY number. I have now corrected it and found it to match the VIN. Car was built at Arlington Texas. Thanks to all.

I bet you have a slight crack in the flared end. Teflon wont help that. It is just as easy to cut the end off and reflare it. I had a Chevy truck that I had to do it on. My 2 cents. Zieg - Original Message - From: John Nasta [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Chevelle List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent:

I forgot to mention that mine, a 72, is not even a Malibu, just a plain ole Chevelle that was bought back then for basic transportation. Although not sought after by many, they are some of the rarest because most was used, wore out, and junked. Luckily I found a an untouched survivor. Zieg
