Just FYI Euro cars never had the build sticker in the jamb, only US.

Sure enough, a short piece of masking tape was stuck to the underside of the glove box, four red letters or numbers written on it, but I couldn't read them.

Has anyone done this with '78 numbers?

Very cool thread! I love that this info is being collected and compared. It makes the cars more interesting, and (IMHO) more valuable to know their history.
