Thanks for the help There is nothing on the cowl tag that provides any info on engine or drivetrain. The cowl tag was for use by Fisher Body and was attached before the body was assigned a VIN or mated to the chassis. The info on it only affected Fisher Body. The word under BDY is PNT (for Paint) ST71 = Style 1971 model year 3 = Oldsmobile Division 42 = Cutlass Supreme 67 = Convertible LAN = Lansing MI assembly plant 471674 = Fisher Body sequence number (not related to the VIN) TR 972 = TRIM Jade Green bucket seat interior 42 G PNT = PAINT Palm Green (42) with Green (G) convertible top 07C = built third week (C) of July (07) 1971 While there is no engine data on the cowl tag, the base engine in the 1971 Supreme was the L74 350 4bbl motor. ALL 1971 Oldsmobile 4bbl motors used a 750 CFM Quadrajet carb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom71 Posted July 18, 2018 Author Share Posted July 18, 2018 Possibly a new dash pad although not really considered trim. I found lots of replacement instrument panel covers, console covers, knobs, bezels, etc on OPGI. Is there another company that stocks this kind of stuff? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Lots of companies stock these parts, but they all come from the same factories in China. OPGI, Fusick, Year One, The Parts Place, Tamaraz, USA Parts Supply, etc, etc. I'm pretty sure no one sells a repro dash pad for these cars.
