The cars appear to have sequential VONs which I think means they were ordered by the same dealership ?

From what I understand that is probably a true statement. The first car's VON is C03219 and the second is C03213, so they appear to have been ordered from the same "book" of order forms.

Is the green car 213 or 218  :rubeyes:

If you zoom in it looks like 213 to me. Still, numerically it's only 6 away from the other which certainly can put it in the same order form "book" as the other.

Thanks for the help guys,  I found the original post while looking for some history on my car.  I found it interesting that 2 very similar cars would be in the same area never mind ordered at the same time.  I'm sure theres a story behind it. I think the history of the N96 car, ( can't say green car because they are both FJ5 cars) might shed some light on mine.

I'm in Alberta,   5 minutes away from the 1970 Hemi GTX you restored for Des.

I've spoken with the owner of that GTX a couple of times, he's certainly had bad luck with that one...I think that car is cursed  :vipermanhiding:

the proximity of the VONs may also be due to the possibility of both cars being a Y16 - "SALES BANK" car, spec'd by a Chrysler Corp. employee  :dunno:
does a broadcast sheet exist for either car?

these are the only "C032xx" VON'd Plymouth E-bodies I know of - anyone have info on any others?
0B247317 was at a Williams Lake BC show in 2012
0B248627 was at a Vancouver BC show in 2010

No broadcast sheet with my car.  I dont know about the other car, I was hoping they might ad some details about there car. I came across this old post by accident and was amazed to find a fender tag almost identical to mine.
