What are the first six digits of your VIN #? From 1st thru 5th digiit, should be 2 for Pontiac, Y or Z for base or custom Ventura, 17 or 27 for hatchback or coupe, B for 350 cu 200hp engine, 4 for 1974. Ex. 2Z17B4???????.

I have had a 1974 GTO in my possession since it was born in 1973 and my VIN is 2Z17B4....... I know the K for the 5th position is listed as the 350ci 4bbl, dual exhaust for 1974 Pontiacs, but I haven't seen a 1974 GTO VIN that doesn't have the B engine code in the 5th position, but maybe there were some produced with a K in the 5th position of the VIN..

Hope this helps with deciphering if it is a '74 GTO.
