That picture was taken by the owner today. I will be over there in the near future and will take off the wheel with the permission of the owner. I'm trying to establish a fair price for this vehicle since we could be trading renovation work for this car.

Here is a picture of the metal data plate.

Need help to interpret this:

This is what I've found so far.
65 GTO Dataplates/VIN

The only thing 3 things on the data plate that make no sense are:

Body BC 4796 - What does this Body Code mean?

TR 287 - What does this Trim Code mean?

ACC C08 C60 - What accessories is this?

found your drums. as it looks they are part of the wheel. Chief 8 Lug

truth is where they look cool, id wonder just how strong the wheels are where they bolt to the drum.

There's probably a good reason they don't make it like that anymore.

I didn't end up getting the car for the trade but I'm happy that the current owner is the son of the past owner. This car will be taken care of. Maybe the new owner (son of my friend) will post up and introduce himself.
