That would be a multi-invoice car that had previous use by a vested PMD personnel.
The build date on the trim tag should pre-date the invoice date by a more than normal margin.

You can check with PHS if they have another earlier invoice for it .
If you can locate a build sheet within the car , it will tell where or which department it was built for.
Sometimes even a name.

Are those 15" Honeycombs or 14" ?

correct me if im wrong, but i think they should be 14" because there is nothing on the option list to default them to the 15" wheel.

If it had a tire option it would indicate us the rim size.
The rims were same price . Iirc

I'm not exactly sure how that works without a tire option -
I don't know if there would have even been a no upcharge 15" tire.
Probably not , but thought I better ask to confirm.

Baron....Not sure I understand? Are you seeing something in the PHS? Was told by PO that his father ordered the car and he did not work at PMD. Here is the data tag. I have not found a build sheet so far. Honeycombs are 14 inch.

oPH Here are a couple pictures of the seats.

In the lower body of invoice it's marked a 5% car
2 lines below that is the discounted code 21
Those are the codes we normally see when a car had some type of mild previous duty within PMD or Zone.

But the Trim Tag date and Invoice date do not have a margin.
So it's a new puzzle I can't recall seeing yet.
Usually there will be a 2-3 month gap ,,,, or even more.

The dealer got the car at a discount.
There were all types of dealer discount incentives , but those programs do not usually show up on individual invoices.

I don't have an explanation on this one.
Maybe the man worked at a GM supplier of some sort .... I don't know.

I don't have access to all my old files and worksheets on previous invoice data to make any comparisons. And I'm getting a little dusty due to lack of involvements with them for the past couple of years.

Might check a PoP date or any sales contract dates or original title date for more clues.

I have made a lot of progress on the 72. It looks so much better then it did a year ago. It is almost ready for paint. I am going to put that off till spring. I have plenty of things to get done over the winter.
