Default ECL Code

Hello All,

I just purchased my first C2. I've had several C3s prior and always wanted a C2 Coupe.
Dave's 64 Coupe https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...QDYbW3yb7_XNNU

I'm in the process of decoding the trim tag, engine casting, etc.
I've run into two codes that I need help with.
The first is on the trim tag.
What is ECL Code HA?
I tried using George's form but it keeps giving me an error.
The second is on the engine casting.
After "3782870" there is "C34" What is C34?

Thank you,

Jeff

I just purchased the NCRS trim tag decode book. It should arrive today or tomorrow. It has all of the ECL's listed that are known. I can look it up for you if no one answers before then. They are supposed to be listed online somewhere according to one of ht4e NCRS judges but I couldn't find or access them so I ordered the $50 book. I have a rare JC ECL that I want to verify.

The engine casting of C34 would be March 3, 1964.

The online trim tag decoder for C2 says "Error: ECL code does not match trim code", for 899 trim and HA ECL code.

Per Al Grenning and Roy Sinor C2 Trim Tag Book, 899 HA is white leather with saddle/tan dash and carpets and console. Start of production until March 24, 1964. (Interesting that TT has a G24 date.....March 24). The 899 HA code is for a coupe that includes the base and excludes A31 and M35. In other words no power windows or auto trans.
