Olds Custom Config Codes?
« Thread started on: 11/07/2003 at 02:28:32 »

When the Olds Custom first came out you would select from 3 bells and 5 mouthpipes. When you selected 'your custom combination' you ordered that, and that's what Olds would 'custom' build for you! And the code would be engraved onto your bell?!

The problem we have now is What Do the Various Codes Mean??

I have not seen any codes on older Customs(with a 1st valve hook) but the initial ones (no 1st hook) may/may not have a code. I've seen one with a code of 37117 (no, it's not the serial no). Any idea what it means??
