This is a shot of the underside of the dash board on the passenger side. You can see the bottom of the inner heater box, underside of the glove box, right side console cover plate with passenger heater outlet, and most importantly, the VIN tag and TRIM tag mounted on the hinge pillar cross brace, a part of the "birdcage" that is the metal sub structure of the fiberglass body. The small VIN tag is riveted on the right, and the larger TRIM tag is riveted on the left. These tags are generally the first things that a prospective mid year Sting Ray buyer looks for to establish the originality of the car. The TRIM tag indicates if the car is a coupe or convertible, the year, month and day it was built, the paint color, and interior color and material (vinyl or leather), and whether the body was produced at the St. Louis MO or A.O. Smith of Ionia MI corvette body shop. My car has a St. Louis body.

The "standard" interior on mid year Sting Rays was black vinyl. The interior on my corvette is Saddle Tan vinyl. The code for this is 420 and is so marked on the Trim plate located next to the VIN plate under the dashboard on the passenger side. The dash pads are still the originals, and the door panels appear original. The carpet appears original, as do the seat covers but would have had to be redone by now. The paint code for Glen Green is GG and is also so marked on the Trim plate. Previous information indicates that the car was repainted one time in the original dark green color in modern two stage enamel. The rear, front, all all four fenders show no old traffic collision damage repair. Bonding strips are in place, and bonding seams are faintly visible in the paint on the fenders.
