PAS driver door sticker question
On the driver side door there's the PAS INC sticker with 2 dates on it. Mine is all washed out and I can't see any of the printing on this sticker unfortunatly.
What I've seen on other TTA's theres a date printed just under the PAS logo on this sticker and most of them been 2/89 (but also seen 3/89) and theres another date below the VEH MFD. BY GENREAL MOTORS CORP. where all I've seen is 2/89 (even where the above date under the PAS logo been 3/89). First question what exactly are those 2 different dates. Second question as my sticker is totaly washed out and I cant see any of those 2 dates is there anywhere else I can look to find out what dates originaly where printed on this sticker? I got the GM invoice where the ship date and invoice date is 03-22-89 does this help narrowing down any of the 2 dates on the sticker? |

Jan I would think that was just the month the car left Pontiac. or PAS. I'm sure they both worked together on those. I would guess some of them didn't make it out by the end of Feb. and wound up with the 3/89. Everyone I've seen so far had the 2/89 never seen the 3/89 yet. The 2 dates might be even when it left the Pontiac factory and when it left PAS. That is possible as well. I've seen them all match in the past as well. Your car being a higher number might have made out out with a 3/89 but I don't think you'll be able to tell anywhere but on that sticker on the door. Those dates might also show up on the build sheet if you have any of those from the car. Here is mine...

It is illegal to reproduce that sticker because the vin number is on there. Anyone could just make them up and re vin a car. You might be able to go thru GM to have them done. I would contact PHS or Pontiac direct.

I looked at what is left of my build sheet and found no dates, also looked at some build sheets I got photos of and there's no date on that one either. |

Found a picture with 4/89 on the sticker as well ... seems like the date range from 2/89 to 4/89 under the PAS logo but all of the pictures I got of this sticker have 2/89 in the other location ...

I guess it took 3 months to get them all done and out the door!
I wonder what the car number that one came from.

Jim, is there any where else on the car the date might be? I wuld be interested to see my build date. I guess I will dig out my build sheet and maybe it will be somewhere since Jan's wasnt complete. I would like to think mine would have been in the last week.

Not sure about the build number, but these are the serial numbers in the VIN's I have with the corresponding dates on the PAS sticker (PAS build date?) 247072 4/89 247634 3/89 239273 2/89 235767 2/89 Mine is 245444 so could be 3/89 or 4/89 as the serial number for the 4/89 above is lower than the 3/89 I also have a picture of..... Anyone got close to build number 1078 (or close to my VIN 245444)? |

I got photos of about 5 different build sheets from at least 5 different TTA's and none of them have a date unfortunatly ... interesting is that most of them are different as well so must have been more than one build sheet for each TTA looking at the info on each of them... |

My serial # is 245589 and my build number is #1105 and my car has 2/89 on it.

The build sheets differ depending on the location they were in the car. It would say where it went. I have one on my desk that was from a tail-panel section of the car. Being it was in the tail panel it will tell you all the codes for anything around that area. I did find TTA #395 and it was one digit off on the vin then mine so that all went in sequence unlike the GNX's
