Found when dismantling

[Tripleblack88]

Hey found this written on the piece of cowling under the radiator. I had removed it for cleaning during restoration. Any idea what the other info means? The date 4.29.88 corresponds to manufactured date on my car of 05.1988. 36C may be the temp in Bowling Green that day in Celcius.

Thanks,
Ray

I would highly doubt that it would refer to the temperature, as the US uses Fahrenheit. Maybe it would be a shift # or something to do with the part its written on, maybe an option #.

Someone here may know what it means though.

Yeah thought that too about the temp. It's a Convertible so maybe that's the 'C' but who knows, kinda cool that it's still there after all these years.

Yes sir...indeed it is.

My guess is his wife called and asked him to pick her up a new bra on the way home. He had the paint pen in his hand and wrote the size down ... Or not....

Could be the code for air conditioning (or no air conditioning) too. There are all sorts of spots where assembly codes get written.

It could be 'rotation number'. Many parts are sub assembled prior to being placed / mounted on the unit. They're placed in a crate, or hung on a feeder line.
It is not the temperature. It only got to 16C that day.
