: Please help decode 70 Chevelle ml8853 Jan 21st, 10, 7:33 PM I found a Chevelle I am interested in purchasing. I was able to get the trim tag info from the seller but cant decode it. The only thing I know for sure is it came with Black buckets and console. Any info would be greatly appreciated. I attached a picture just in case.

They put 4 quarters on, new trunk pan and painted the car. Should the build sheet be in there still? Is it a sticker or actual piece of paper? elcamino Jan 22nd, 10, 6:48 AM Should the build sheet be in there still? Is it a sticker or actual piece of paper? A 8x12 piece of form paper printed out by a teletype printer at the many work stations in the assembly plant.

Use the Search function and you will see exactly what you are looking for. If you go to the Showroom section in the blue bar at the top of the page, select 1970 model year and go to page #8, you'll see a photo of my build sheet in the middle of the third row. Good Luck! | ||
