Sure there is - a PHS only lists optional equipment, the code 348 option at $168.51
is the Ram Air III. They didn't all say 'Ram Air 400'

I was wondering if the written note regarding 205936 on feb. 12th was to indicate a dealer to dealer transfer on that date? 05 being the new york region and 936 maybe being the dealer code?

Hmmm.... never really looked at what was written, just saw the dates.

The upper note is for the power flo vent - code 588 with a date of 1-23-69 which is supposedly after the dealer received it. (which was not a zone car, so was ordered for customer or dealer)

The bottom note can't ell what it says at first? con?
Looks like maybe D? 205936
development code?

Or maybe didn't have it when delivered and dealer installed it?
(rare option)

Might need John V input?



Still would like to know who wrote the note?
Dealer? PHS?
Pontiac after the car was shipped?

Interesting note about the power-flow. Might mean nothing but seems perhaps a big coincidence since there is a Pontiac bulletin I've seen about power-flow finally being offered on Fbirds in early jan 69.

I haven't seen a similar bulletin about A bodies but I did look at my GTO PHS listing (800+) and I have 5 cars with power-flow and the earliest build date is mid January 69 (it's this car).

CMD = Credit Memo Document
205936 is the reference number to that particular credit - returned to dealer.
Evidently the Power-Flo didn't make it onto the car during assembly.

A fair number of these CMD's show up on Invoices from time to time.
All are in the same handwriting - at least on the year ranges i fool with mostly (65-73).

They were handled at the PMD level.

The odd thing on this memo is it doesn't include the dollar $ amount in the notation. Might not have had their 2nd cup yet that morning.
The actual CMD would have handled getting the credit to the dealer though.
In the event of audits, checks & balances, etc ... the CMD's could be cross-referenced to their applicable invoice , and vice-versa.

It's also a little odd that the body date has such a gap from shipping date.
Probably stored waiting on the engine ? or waiting on Power-Flo ?

all items were supposed to be accounted for before the build order was put into the build process.
Sometimes the bean counters may have had setbacks due to anticipated availability that didn't materialize on time.

i think Kxx8 is the earliest known casting on 69 WS / YZ blocks.
Mid to Late Nov 68
Somewhere on here there was already a witch hunt on this factoid.
Seems like that was the result ... but i'm not fully positive now.
It may have been Jxx8
