1966 El Camino Body Number Plates ~ Fremont, CA. (BF)

[ 1964 ] | [ 1965 ] | [ 1966 ] | [ 1967 ] | [ 1968 ] | [ 1969 ]

It is known that in 1966 Fremont coded trim tag style numbers with an even 3rd digit for a V8 and an odd 3rd digit for an L6 so the Fisher Body Style number is a valid resource to tell if the car was a V8 or L6.

More 1966 Chevelle trim tag information can be found on my 1966/1967 Chevelle Reference CD.
