It would probably be very low volume use.

I believe the mint 70 judge with red interior also came from the oshawa plant.

Note that Oshawa build sheets are a small piece of paper listing the option codes. About 2" x 8". No dealer or customer order information is provided.

Like this...? This is from my 4-dr Tempest sedan that was ordered with the 400 2-bbl/TH400 (L65/M40) that was Oshawa built and sold in Stamford, CT.

I did not know that. This was all I found under the back seat many years ago. I figured it started as the normal big build sheet and got eaten by probably mice but maybe it was the smaller Oshawa sheet.

[Bermuda Blue]

That's the build sheet.

I see M21, G80 and L74 - those are the important ones!

Dennis:

Its interesting that your build sheet shows WS6. A well know code in Trans Am circles. WS6 was even used in the last generation Grand Prixs to indicate suspension components designed to improve high speed handling. In this case I believe WS6 gets you auto trans, power steering and power brakes.

I also like the D98!

May have missed it but I don't see WS6 but Y96 is the Handling Package

The D98 stripe is sweet

My take on the Oshawa "build sheet" is:

D98 STRIPE, ACCENT
G80 AXLE POSITRACTION, LIMITED SLIP
GX2 AXLE REAR, 3.07 (or is it 3.31 RATIO) ??
JL2 BRAKES: DISC - FRONT - SINGLE PISTON CALIPER
J50 BRAKES: VACUUM POWER
L75 ENGINE 455-D- 4 Barrel
M21 TRANSMISSION: 4-SPEED MANUAL – CLOSE RATIO
N41 STEERING, POWER, VARIABLE RATIO
N98 WHEEL: RALLY II ROAD
PK5 G70-14 WIDE OVAL TIRES
U63 RADIO: AM PUSHBUTTON
U80 AUXILLIARY SPEAKER REAR
Y96 HANDLING PACKAGE

EWA = Engine WA Code
TDD = DD 4 Speed Close Ratio
AXU = Axle [XU] 3.31 - 12 Bolt Posi
TDP = Trim Colour ?

[johnta1]

Don't see a TDD?

TDP is DP 4 speed for L75 engine.


USLD 34 34 - Mint Turquoise
255 - Saddle interior color

[scott70]

And the specific DP(455 only) m21 code was probably just for the speedo gear or something?
I can't believe all these years and now finding out that Oshawa cars didn't have the full build sheets.
