    Gas door lid

    Does anyone what color the flag was in the upper left hand corner in the early production of a 66 corvette? Was it white or black?

    Thank you

    Morris - According to the 66 TIM&JG "Emblems first used in 1966 production up to approximately VIN 8900 were manufactured with a white upper square flag." Noland Adams also discusses the 1966 gas lid differences thru production in his book. Pete

      Enclosed is a photo of my original 1966 Corvette (Feb. 24, 1966 build date) gas door with the white upper left hand "square" on the flag. I bought the car in 1979 and have no reason to believe that the very faded gas door is not original but anything can happen in 13 years. In the hinge area are "38144041" and "30181-H" casting numbers. The 1966 AIM indicates a part number change from 3852910 to 3874528 on 4/19/66.
