monteplaya70 Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Wts kookn fellow addicts, I had a question, I was hoping someone would help me answer. I was wondering how many ID tags or numbers tags a 1970 monte body has, and exacly where they are located? I'm trying to gather as much information as possible on my monte considering I dont have the build sheet. Another question, do they sell reproduction build sheets to match a particular car by the Vin Number? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TN454Monte Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Someone correct me if I am mistaken, but as far as I know 1st Gen's only have the one tag, located on the firewall above the brake booster. Here's the link for decoding info from our tech section... Body tag decode Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 The tag on the cowl (body tag) and the VIN tag in the windsheild. I beleive there is also a sequence number stamping which matches the VIN on the firewall behind the heater box. Correct me if I'm wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy's Auto Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Nada, some folks out there sell blanks that you can fake, but unless you can reproduce 40 years of cockroach legs and antennae, it will come across looking very fake. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monte70car Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Andy I've come across some org build sheets that didn't have cockroach legs and antennae, matter of fact I have a quarter of one sitting here on top of the cable box. They do sell blank build sheets, now if you have a Canada built or sold car then you can get a copy of the org. build sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get an official GM peice of paper that lists all the options ordered on your car but it does not resemble a build sheet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
