    I just picked up a very nice, original '67 Buick Special. This is a true survivor car, 43K miles, original paint-interior-vinyl top, never been wrecked, absolutely no rust, alway garaged. The car is Gold Mist w/ Black top and black interior. The car came with the protect-o-plate and intact body tag. The other interesting feature, it came with the original sales invoice with the options itemized on the invoice. The only problem, the options are coded and I don't have any resources to decode those. Anyway, here is the info and any help decoding all this would be appreciated.

    Here's the POP info:

    138GG2 435177H248302
    B361 W
    MM153 248

    owners name 190183
    address 04-22-7
    city 7H248302

    Body Tag info:

    O3D

    ST 67-43617FL1 187467 Body

    TR 138-A G-2 Paint

    E 2EX

    5K

    Here are the option codes listed on the sales invoice:

    A7
    B1
    C6
    D1
    I6
    L1
    O4
    V2

    Any ideas?

    Here are a few pics:

    Great looking car! Like the color combo, I have a '66 the same colors.:beer

    If you can find an order form for a '67, it will have those same sales invoice option codes on it. I have them for 65 and 66, but not 67. Look on eBay, or contact Buick thru their customer relations. They sent me a packet of info years ago for my 66. :TU:

    Thanks for pointing me in the right direction, I think I have the body tag decoded:

    Body Tag info:

    O3D

    (4th week of March, 1967)

    ST 67-43617FL1 187467 Body

    ST: STYLE
    67 : 1967
    4 : Buick
    3617 : Special Deluxe V8
    FLI : Flint, MI
    187467 : Fisher serial number

    TR 138-A G-2 Paint

    TR : Trim
    138 : Black vinyl. not sure what the A is.
    G-2 : Gold irid. w/ Black top

    E 2EX

    E : Tinted Windows
    2EX : Group 2 options, E : A/C, X : Turbine 300 auto trans

    5K

    Group 5 option K : door edge guards

    Other than the A (bench seat maybe?) after the interior trim code, I think I have the body tag decoded. FYI, this all matches up with the car.

    Next is the POP and the 2 character option codes off the invoice.
    thanks.
    Todd.
