 LOL, yeah maybe it was like the lottery. 1/2 the CS cars got aluminum, 1/2 the CS cars got woodgrain.

That "1/2" is baffling. I was looking at it again today and I don't think I've ever seen that on a GM tag before.

 

 Ever get a build sheet/gm vintage docs and compare numbers to find the 1/2?

 i have the docs Don, nothing on there about the 1/2 and 1/2

How about they meant to stamp T-10 for a white top? That could be a 1 and T and maybe 1/2 almost on top of each other? Then only had room for a 1/2 stamp and 1/2 was code for a screwup stamping?

October 27 1965 was a Wednesday so hangovers should not have been the problem on that particular day.
