Gday All
I thought I would use the chart here to check out the parts car I've just picked up.

The serial number reads:- EK225AUT - 2354A
EK225 = special sedan
AUT =

2354A - 2354th built in Adelaide

What is the AUT?

also
Trim 715 - 965 ???
Paint 585 - 0246 = Snowcrest White
Top 585 - 0285 = can't find it on the chart?

Can anyone fill the gaps for me please?

Hi THOMMO

The 'AUT' simply means automatic, so it must be have had a Hydra-Matic transmission.

The paint number is interesting. 0285 is 'Council Blue' which is a fleet colour. So the car must have been part of a particular council fleet.

A 965 interior is Rose Coral & Barossa Maroon.

Dr Terry.

Thank you Dr Terry
The car is fitted with a manual steering column, that threw me.
Its also had a 202/Trimatic fitted, but is assumed it was retro fitted.
'Council Blue' is interesting, especially with Coral & Maroon trim

That sounds like a council decission to me

I've seen quite a few council blues.

Police are usually called and you read about it in the next days paper!!

if it was a council decision they must have had a couple of years prior knowledge of what would be available in that year, with the speed they make decisions

Scuse me guys, but where are those numbers 0285 and 965 on the Colors Chart,cant find them there?

Gday Gorden
Those numbers aren't on the chart, that was the problem

Maybe someone with a more comprehensive list could post it up

Cheers
Jeff

Hmm...think you better check that Paint No. again, I dont think aWhite car with Pink/Brown upholst. would have a Blue top,not from Factory anyways...?

Being special order fleet colours,
would that make it a little more desirable to collectors?

Yeah could be, like all our cars if we all bought Monaros
but till then Have a Good Xmas NYear All!

Sorry old post
Thommo I think you may have misread your top paint code as
comb no 715 is for Cameo Beige (235) over Snowcrest (246)
