51UKChieftan Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 Hi Guys, Attached is a picture of the Vin Tag on my 51 coupe. Does the "SO" after the number mean special order? If so what would that incorporate? Thanks Joe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The 55er Posted June 22, 2021 Share Posted June 22, 2021 I think that's SD not SO, it's the model number designation that means Catalina Coupe Super Deluxe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PONTIAC1953 Posted June 26, 2021 Share Posted June 26, 2021 #1, that's not the VIN tag, that's the Body by Fisher trim data plate, your VIN is mounted on the driver's door post. #2, L = Linden NJ assembly plant, #3, 73 = blue bedford cord with ivory leather bolsters, this was a no cost alternative to the standard two tone all leather seats, #4, 5122 = roof paint malibu ivory and body paint sapphire.
