Got my shipping data report for my 1974 ls4
DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT DEALER CODE 0 IS? SEEMS AS IF MY CAR WAS GIVEN TO SOME BIG WIG AT THE ZONE OFFICE!

The car went to the Chevrolet Zone HQ in Los Angeles, CA... Probably as a fleet or PR car.
The Chevrolet's Los Angeles zone is STILL in operation. I'm not sure how helpful they'd be, but there exists a small chance that they still have records for the cars assigned to the zone. If you get in touch with the right person, who knows? Talk to people... Who assigned the cars? Who maintained the cars? Who on staff would rate to use a Corvette? All questions you can run past them that might lead you a little further down the line.
When you're trying to trace the history of a forty year old car, any new information is helpful.

Time/build date and the date in his data report are probably different. Time/Build only means the day the tag was attached. Date in the report is the date the window sticker was put on it, invoice prepared, manufacturer's statement of origin prepared, and it was driven out to the lot to await shipment.
For bookkeeping purposes, GM considered the car to have been finished on the date in the report.
