I was wondering if there was a better way to do the survey...it seems there must be, especially since some of us have multiple examples to enter info from.
I see Jeff is back online, perhaps once he gets caught up (like he ever really gets caught up) he may have some suggestions.
The results are somewhat consistant so far in only one specific...that the same type was used on both sides...at least for upper or lower locations. Take for example John's 12/15/66 built example and my projected build date 12/13/66, John's has the SPC version on the lower like my 11/2/66 did while one presumably built 2 days earlier had the AVM on it(projected, so not sure about ACTUAL date) Those were off a SJ S-code coupe. Strange enough though, and this is where things go strange, why I began the survey...my 11/2 built example AND the projected 12/13 example BOTH had stamped steel AVM uppers (not cast). So my known absolutely as original LH side for my 11/2 was one each, stamped upper AVM and cast lower SPC. Then I had the December example with both stamped upper AVM's and both cast lower AVM's on it... while then also there was a donor door I have with no build data for other than the stamped dates dated 12/15 in the sheet metal of he door she'll that had both cast hinges like John's does. I haven't located those particular hinges just yet again from wherever I hid them when I disassembled the car, (missing my mounting plates too...probably in the same box somewhere). Once I locate them, I'll update the details for them.
Strange also that Bill has two examples (close in build date is a huge plus) with what I believed to be the EARLY version (cast hinges)...I wonder what the heck was going on here? Multiple lines using different suppliers?
Finally, I have one question for John... Do you know if your car was finished on time or how many days off it was? My 11/2 was late by one day.
