Can anyone suggest what ACC- B D X I K X D T would represent on a 1961 Catalina cowl tag?
Thank you,
Del

These codes seem to remain a mystery for most. We can find lots of listings of the many accessories available for these cars, even parts group numbers and individual part numbers.

However, the actual stamped codes are always illusive. Many have been decoded for Pontiac and Chevrolet over the years (who has them I do not know), but be glad you don't have a Buick or Oldsmobile as they are seemingly lost to time for those cars.

The only options I can think of is to continue doing Google searches and perhaps someone, somewhere has posted thins information (I cannot find it though). Or, try to find a salesman's handbook from 1961. I would bet it has the codes needed for writing up a sales ticket. The other option is to check with PHS (Pontiac Historical Services). While they may not have the definition of the actual code letters, they may have the records of your car and the accessories listed that were on it when it was built.

If you discover a source for this information, please share it as it continues to be a problem for many.

Larry,
Thank you for at least pointing me in a direction. I think I will try PHS as I have warn the keyboard out on Google! For my 1968 Oldsmobile W31 a car most folks have never seen or heard of getting the decode was a walk in the park compared to this journey! If I have any success it will be posted!
Thanks,
Del
