BBQCRUISING, Verne Frantz is on the chevytalk.org forum and has researched many Chevy subjects. I'm not sure if he has written an actual book on these subjects. He sure seems to be extremely knowledgeable.

A little more on the subject of Verne Frantz. Verne is a member of the Jersey Late Greats, he has spent years researching the 58 to 64 Chevrolets. He provides the cowl tag service that Late Great offers. Alan Colvin, who wrote the "Chevrolet By the Numbers" books credits Verne with providing information. He's pretty careful with his remarks so if he says it you can belive it!
He may be lurking here somewhere but I've never seen him post, stays over on the ChevyTalk Forum
Oh, and he's a hellva of a good guy!!!

BBQ,
Yes, they provide a cowl tag decoding service. They will not tell you what the codes mean but they will tell you how your car was equiped when it left the factory. The service is available through the Late Great Chevy headquarters or through the Jersey Late Greats. Either way, Verne provides the information. There is a charge, I'm not sure how much, about $25 I think. Check out their web site. Not sure what their address is, just do a search for Jersey Late Greats. Hope this helps
