1974 Barracuda seat tags

[JJ]

1st post so hopefully I'm in the right place. I've got a 2 owner 1974 Barracuda my father bought me in 1977 when I was in high school. I finally had the interior, from Legendary Auto Interiors, redone and found some seat tags. Any clue how to decode these? Top left is front drivers seat, top right is front passenger, black in back seat lower, silver is back seat back rest.

Welcome to the best E Body website in the WORLD

What each number represents is a part number , vender code likely, and a date code.

The date codes are 261 3, 249 3, and 212 3 That means the 261st day of 1973, etc...

Great info and I really appreciate it!!!!! I knew they were original but this provides confirmation.
The car was actually built October 8th 1973 so it all lines up.... I found the build sheet too.... 👍

A08 is your car's "Scheduled Production Date" 10/8/73, if the door sticker is still on the car - it will list the cars actual completion date in MDH format: Month Day Hour

  '74 GTX example A23 "Scheduled" 10/23/73 & 11/1/73 "completed" (11 = November, 01 = 1st of month, 17 = 17th hour *5:00 PM) about a week+ LATE

& the "LSI M" is Lear Siegler Inc - Middletown Mfg.    & it looks like the Vendor Code is actually 18685 13685 @JJ thanks for clarifying
