My ‘86 suburban has 83 written everywhere. Firewall, frame, behind bumpers, under dash pad.

Firewall and fender. I used to laugh at the car restoration chalk mark guys. But when I clean up my engine bay, I will take pains to preserve it. I doubt I will ever be a concourse resto guy, but I have come to appreciate singularities that occurred at the factory.

what chalk numbers do you have on yours?

I can't remember, I'd have to look. Keith Seymour talks about that somewhere and there was no particular rhyme or reason - I guess on the assembly line guys were allowed to make whatever notations help them do their work. I've even seen the paint color written on the firewall.

My 1989 1500 4 x 4 Suburban, 6.2 diesel has the numbers " 968" written vertically on the drivers side firewall of the engine compartment. 9 at the top, 8 at the bottom.
