Default 70 GT-37 score !

I wasn't looking for another car but it literally fell in my lap.
Recieved a message at work to call this phone number tonight !
Thinking it was a disgruntled customer I stewed about it all day.
Turns out he was given my name by all kinds of people and wanted me
to have it since I would know what it was.
One owner, one repaint, 100% rust free. 350 3spd Muncie.
Oshawa built in mid June.
Can anyone tell me the GT37 production from Oshawa ?
thanks guys.

I remember this car back in the 80's. We would catch glimpses of it around town.
Little old lady and all. But could never track it down. 63000 miles, protect-o-plate
unmolested. kind of... After the husband died, mom couldn't drive a stick so it was converted to a TH400. Putting the M13 back in is priority one. Stripes and GT37 emblems next. Searched all night for the build sheet but no luck yet.
An Oshawa build sheet is a skinny little ticker tape so I still might get lucky.
Gold interior needs a good cleaning but that's it.
I would like to put a few questions out there, Rubber floor covering , available ?
The GT-37 stipe , I seem to remember its close but not exactly like the '69 Judge is that right ?
And yes I did pay up for it . 6K. But to me it is what it is. And having a few '70's
to restore , a time capsule to go by is invaluable.

my car has the same interior too....your car is nearly identicle to what mine should be..im in the middle of a frame off..but heres a pic or two showing stripes

post a pic of the trim tag...i bet the GT37 code is on it, maybe the stripe and hood pin codes too...you really dont need a build sheet, the trim tag on a Oshawa car tells all the engine rear end and body codes, that is, every one ive seen, but never saw one for a GT...i know Judges up there have the spoiler and WT1 code which is Judge

no rubber mat

69 stripe is right

let me know where you locate GT-37 decals (emblems are for 71) as no one reproduces them unless someone recently started. I've tried, unsuccessfully so far, for about 2 years to get them reproduced.

the stripe is the red/white/black, exact same as a 69 Judge.

rubber floor is apparantly available from ACC. however it's different in that there is no heel pad like originals.

Mark, here you go with the data plate.
Interesting to see the EUN is on the protect-o-plate also
nice to have that feature for verifying matching numbers.
