1964 Chevelle Body Number Plates ~ Van Nuys, CA. (VN)

[ 1964 ] | [ 1970 ] | [ 1971 ] | [ 1972 ]

1964 Trim Tag Codes

It is known that in 1964 Van Nuys coded all trim tag style numbers with an even 2nd digit so the Fisher Body Style number is not a valid resource to tell if the car was a V8 or L6.
