Teak Wood Interior Change Over Period

<< < (2/3) > >>

georgenmel:
Daven, just ran across your thread about teak wood grain dash inserts. If you still are looking for a supplier, I had mine done over last year by a guy who has since passed away, but Frank from Vacuum Orna-metal was supposed to be picking up the decal work from Chris. Frank did all my plastic chroming on all the dash, instrument, a/c balls, and also handled the plastic repairs needed. He did an outstanding job. Chris had a 3M product that was a perfect match. I put Chris in touch with Frank and I think that's how Frank got the product info. After Chris passed, Frank told me he was going to offer the decals along with his other services. Hope that helps. Orna-metal's ph # is :800-827-6762------ Good Luck !!

Daven:
Thank you Georgenmel!  I will definitely contact them.

I wanted to provide some info to help narrow that 'sometime after May' window.  My San Jose scj mach 1 (9R02R1777XX) was built on May 22, 69 and had the 3AA Trim code...and obviously the walnut wood.

Change over date or period seems to be a bit more irregular at this plant.
Looking at NJ built carsHere are some of the examples I have. Listed by real build date first

Feb 24st 69 - 9T02R1922xx (interior code 3D)
Feb 24st 69 - 9T02R1727xx (interior code 3DA)
April 22nd 69 - 9T02Q2058xx (interior code 3A)

Note: Don't have a ton of NJ examples and 9T02R1727xx is the only one I have with the three digit interior code. Could it be a typo on the Marti?  Don't know but the example appears to be out of what the others would suggest the pattern is currently form only my stuff

From buildsheets

9T01S186xx with a 07B scheduled build date has a three digit interior code

9T02H1754xx with a 18B scheduled build date has a two digit (3A) interior code

9T02R2817xx with a 23D scheduled build date has a three digit interior code

Dearborn cars - Appears that we may be able narrow this change over period to a specific week so far but looking at other plants it may be too early to assume this is a hard change over.

Dec 13th 68 - 9F02M4800xx  (interior code 3W)

Dec 20th 68 - 9F02R1430xx (interior code 3AA)

Vcode:
My May 14 Metuchen Mach 1 has 3A - I know of a May 14 San Jose Mach 1 that has a 3AA
