Originally, the paint number was stamped on the left main sill, but very rarely is it found. $\:D$ $\:D$ $\:D$ _________________________ The Mangy Old Mutt "If It's Not Junk.....It's Not Treasure!"

Chipper Registered: 11/22/01 Posts: 10239 Loc: The Great State of TEXAS	Only the later '30 models had the paint combination numbers stamped in the drivers side main sill. I don't remember the date it was effective. May have a chance to look it up tomorrow. _________________________ How Sweet the roar of a Chevy four!

Junkyard Dog Registered: 11/23/01 Posts: 20041 Loc: Eagle Point, Oregon	"Only the later '30 models had the paint combination numbers stamped in the drivers side main sill." That is incorrect Chippy Dippy. In the October issue of the 1929 Chevrolet Service News it states: "Starting approximately October 1st (1929), the production department will stamp the color combination in which the car is finished on the left body sill just inside of the left front door." $;\)$ $\:D$ $\:D$ $\:D$ _________________________ The Mangy Old Mutt "If It's Not Junk.....It's Not Treasure!"
