SO- I got the build card finally for my 32 SC Sedan Deluxe. The engine and body numbers match. But I can't figure out the paint and trim code number from the card.It's "3E56" . Anyone have a clue on how to decode this? I know the exterior paint is the original, one of the green combo's, probably Tiber Gray and Wheeler Gray. The cloth is original, kind of a herring bone mauve/brown, with a fuzzy dark brown carpet and lower door trim pieces. Anyone with more specifics on the right terms/names to use to locate fabrics/carpets? any and all help appreciated!
Also the dealer is listed as Portland Motors (Illegible word follows), Portland Or. I can't find that dealer on any databases....
i have a 30,cf.can't find body numbers?
Look on Driver side firewall facing the engine. That is where the tag is on the 32...
Pretty sure the original color was
Jack Pine Gray. Wondering about those wheels. Build card said wooden wheels. These are chrome w insignia hubs, with black rims with white stripe. Anyone know about these?
On my 30 Cf thereis only a patent label and words stating its made of this brand of steel.no vehicular info.on the. Dr side door post looks like something was there,but just some residue.where else can I find any info numbers?thx,moe
