    Are you talking about the All GM sticker?? It goes on the passenger side about halfway although I have seen originals a little more towards th front. Do you have the correct decal. It should have a "BC" code.

    So this one I've had tucked away for 10 years with PP on it is incorrect? Just my luck!! I just looked on Osborne and they say this PP code is for a 69... They don't show a listing for a 71, but the BC you mention they show for a 70?

    Hmmm...

    BC 6485517 is correct, but they mislabeled the repos to 6486517 or some such, either way close as you can get i guess. My original sticker is pretty well centered, or if you want to get real anal the leading edge is about 5" from the edge of the front snorkle :laugh:

    have fun,

    Yep, the PP is a Pontiac Sticker I believe. The Buicks shoud begin with a B most years Olds O etc. Although I have seen original Olds W30's with NJ... The 70 and 71 Buick assembly manuals show BC for 70-71. We here on this Board almost always no more than the repro companies. They always say they do but they just want to sell you product. It is a good thing they have it but remember Let the Buyer Beware.
