(1) The Comfort & Convenience group varied with the series. Type A is for 135, 136, 137, and 138xx series while Type B included a glove box lamp with 131, 132, 133, and 134 series.

(2) The letter "P" isn't known for certain on Framingham Chevelles. It was initially believed to be for RPO Z01/Z13, Comfort & Convenience Group Type A or Type B depending on the particular series. However, a 300 2-door sedan has been documented with "P" in group 2 but it does not have a glove box lamp nor backup lamps, only a driver side door mirror.

(3) Found on a 1965 Nova. Presumed to be the same code for a Chevelle tag.

(4) Entered production March, 1965

*** The letter "L" isn't known on Atlanta & Framingham Chevelles. It is believed this letter "L" is not in group 5 as it has been found on several tags with no group 5 designation.
