ddiddle Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm trying to re-create a window sticker without paying the $35.00 (I'm cheap, what can I say). I have a blank, thanks to Robert (Monte70car), but I'd like a couple to look at for font and option costs and all that. If you have a photo of yours that is easily accessible, could you post it? I'd really love one from a 402/400 car just to know the original option costs, but one from any car would help. Also, does anyone know the font that best replicates the window sticker font? Thanks!

monte70car Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Daryl I believe I used Roman Times for the sheets I had made. The LS3 402 ran $141.15 and the 400 trans looks to be $221.80 those are for a 1970 price. I will check a few I have sent to other members and see if it has the font type and size.

monte70car Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Also if its helps when I did my window stickers I used http://www.getpaint.net/ to do the work on the sheet. I just check the font they have listed and I used Times New Roman size set at 14 its more of a trail and error job, I'll check my desktop and see if I have a filled out one with the font and size.

monte70car Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Daryl I just checked my desktop which I used for my sticker and build sheet and I don't have a copy of the finished item on the harddrive but I'm pretty sure it was Times New Roman on size 14. Let me know if you need help with anyting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are two more I need, if you've got 'em: AQ2 automatic seat back latch P90 g70 15 white stripe belted tires I'll post a pic when I get it done. It's looking pretty good.

ddiddle Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 Robert, how do you know all these? Is there a chart printed somewhere? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monte70car Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 They are listed in a book I have that covers chevelles camaro and impala every option that was available along with the price. It also has the block codes intake and dist codes for doing a numbers matching car. I'll try and get a picture of my window sticker and dealer add on sheet shortly.

monte70car Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 here is a shot of just the window sticker hard to believe 4 wheel disc cost that much in 1969. and that cham exhaust add some more 0's and you might have the cost of today. I got to thinking now I have to go back and redo both my window sticker and build sheet to show the hood zl2(from a chevelle) but the name of the books is chevrolet ss muscle car red book 1961-1973.

ddiddle Posted July 5, 2011 Author Share Posted July 5, 2011 Here's my attempt. As soon as I printed it out, I saw a couple things wrong with it, but I can fix those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KWick_70MC Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 What is the name of the book your using, and who prints it?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monte70car Posted July 5, 2011 Share Posted July 5, 2011 Kevin the book is Chevrolet SS red book muscle cars 1961-1973 I'm at work so I'm not sure who made it. It covers 70-71 SS montes but it does show the small block motors and the 4speed code. At the end of each model year they have a article written about the car, its a nice book we have had our copy since 93 when my dad got his 70 chevelle.

RichG Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I was looking at your sticker, isn't the big block 400 a "Turbo Jet" and the small block 400 a "Turbo Fire"? I may be wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ddiddle Posted July 7, 2011 Author Share Posted July 7, 2011 I was looking at your sticker, isn't the big block 400 a "Turbo Jet" and the small block 400 a "Turbo Fire"? I may be wrong. I wondered about that. I don't know. The example I used of the language was an original window sticker from a small block car. Anyone with a 402 and your original window sticker, can you help out here? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichG Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 There is a link at "Great source of information" #315585 - 04-24-2011 06:58 PM here in the restoration forum. You can look up a lot of information in these AMA documents. On page 3 of the 1970 booklet, they list all the small blocks as "Turbo Fire" and all the big blocks as "Turbo Jet". It details all the options and what equipment came with what, such as all 3 speed manual transmissions had the shifter on the column. Great stuff.

ddiddle Posted July 8, 2011 Author Share Posted July 8, 2011 Thanks Rich. You suppose it's "400" or "402"? I'm thinking they said 400. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichG Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Yes, in 1970 they marketed the 400 small block and the 402 as 400's. One was referred to as 400 2 bbl and the other as 400 4 bbl. Because the 400 small block was a 1970 only option, I'm not sure how they marketed the 402 in 71 & 72. If you can get a copy of the sales brochure you could figure it out.
