Sorry didn"t mean to shout with last pic... The 85 OSP I own has 2 tags and they are both same size with square corners attached with the same screw (first picture). There is an 85 OSP car in a wrecking yard 40 miles south of me that had the bigger square tag mounted to the rh side of the drivers nose support bracket and a smaller rounded corner Oregon Special Service tag mounted to the left of the bracket ( second picture) Found the build sheets for both my cars, only bad thing is the 85 car has it's stick to floor behind drivers seat but 85% readable.

What is the DSO # for your '85 OSP?

Here's a picture of the tags from my 85, cleaned them and put them back in place. Production date was 6/85 for mine DSO# 74-0637 and the one in the wrecking yard was 5/85 and it's DSO# 74-0184

I'm wondering if it's just that particular DSO group (74-0184) that has that tag. Mike will probably definitely want to use that pic of yours as a comparison. When he updates the buck tag info on the site. Very interesting stuff.

Great pics...thanks for posting them up.

Are you 100% sure that both cars were OSP? I guess they could have had more than one order for the year, but those numbers are pretty far off.

Reinforced seatback on the '84 . Didn't know they did them that early or just haven't paid attention to any of the earlier buildsheets.

On my 85 car the build sheet is stuck to floor but can still read most of it. First line matches buck tag DSO, can make out Oregon after that on the curved part of floor- had a better angle but cann't find picture at the moment. 3rd line you can read Special Service Pkg. What is readable of the Vin also matches tags and door.

I'm sorry....I should have more specific. I was referring to the '85s.

Great pic of your build sheet! Is it ok to use this on the site?
