Default Coding question

Can anyone give me their opinion on whether these numbers seem correct for a 74 sb coupe?

14s436532
vo7o5cla
N24 body build date on the trim tag.
What confuses me is the July date on the block and the late August build

Your quick response is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Looks right. CLA is a 73 or 74 350 automatic.

What's the problem with a July 7 engine in an Aug 5 assembled car?

N24 on the trim tag is Sept 24th for a '74. No big deal.

Right Mike,

My bad. While I was trying to count months/alphabet on my fingers (badly I might add), I was still thinking 05 from the engine and not 24 from the trim tag.

Thanks, I really appreciate it. I just wanted to make sure before I look at pulling the trigger on this car. Thanks again.
