1967 Camaro Trim Tag Identification and Decoding
Starting with the introduction of the Camaro in 1967 Each first generation Camaro has had a special identification tag attached to the Camaros body known as a trim tag or cowl tag as some prefer to call it. The trim tag depending on the year of the Camaro can supply you as either the owner, potential buyer or just a simple enthusiast with a great deal of information about eh car you are looking at. No trim tag though will be able to tell you more about your first generation Camaro than the tag used in 1967.
The first step is to locate the trim tag for your Camaro. For the first generation cars 1967, 1968 and 1969 the trim tag is located on the firewall between the wiper motor and the brake master cylinder. The image below shows you where to find the trim tag on a bare shells firewall. For those of you who are Firebird fans the trim tag for your Pontiac is located here also and shares many of the same codes.
The tag used on the 1967 Camaro has a number of sections with important information. These areas have been enclosed in black boxes which you can click on to learn exactly how the codes are broken down and there meanings.
The first box on the top row is a two number code which indicates the month of the year that you car was assembled. In the case of the top image below the month is 05 or May of 1967. The second box right next to that is a single letter code which indicates the week of the month in this case E for the fifth week of the month. In the same line all the way to the right is another single letter on Norwood cars which indicates the interior paint trim color for the tops of doors and the dash panel area. In LOS cars this is an assembly sequence number which starts with a letter and followed by 3 numbers.
The second row indicates from left to right the year the car was built followed by a dash and then the body style. This number looks a lot like the first five digits of your VIN but it actually has no direct relation. In this case it tells you if the car is a coupe or convertible and also lets you know if it is supposed to have standard or deluxe interior. The next part is a 3 letter code indicating the plant of Manufacture NOR or LOS followed by a six digit unique body number assigned by the plant.
The third line of codes starts with the interior style and color followed by a Z or Y indicating if the car had headrest seats or not. The next code to the right is the lower body paint color and then the upper body paint or top color.
The fourth and fifth lines may be blank on your trim tag or have a series of numbers and letters like the example below. These are what are known as group options. For each group the letters that follow indicate a type of option that was installed on the car. So in this tags case group 1 (the one in group one is never shown) the W stands for a tinted windshield, the 2 shows an L for the manual transmission, G for console, etc.
Sometimes on the fifth line regardless of if there is a group 5 set of options or not there may be a dash followed by a series of numbers and letters these represent a special order car and vary from order to order. If you own a car with a set of these numbers we would very much like to here from you about your car.
