Default Re: Calling All Two-Tones

Hey Jake, That's great to hear. Is your truck an early production number? My truck is number 1492 (1002PN 2493A, serial numbers start at 1001,so 2493 minus 1001 equals 1492)built at Pontiac Plant. I do not know if those red numbers were plant specific, used for years or just early on. There are no other examples of these numbers that have come to light. Surely there are more out there. We just need folks to check for them, and if they have them, document them with pictures. I hope you got pictures of your red numbers. I taped over mine when we painted the frame. They are done apparently with a template, in a really thick red paint. Mine were upside down, on the outside of the frame, under the right door. Here is a picture for reference. Jake, are yours here as well? Everybody check your truck for these when you get a chance. Thanks, GM
