I found this when I took out the passenger side speaker, the orginal ones. they had never been moved on the car before.

Just wondering if this would be interesting to anyone or if it reveals much about my car's history or making? There's obviously intials or a signature on it.

kinda looks like something of when the car was finalized or that part of the car, have you found a bigger piece of paper? has more information on it, could be stuffed ne where, thats the fun one

on my last olds i found the build sheet, 90 olds royale brougham, super sweet car, some pics in album thing, was dated Nov 10th 1989, kinda cool, lost that sheet from old car over the years, havent found it on current olds so far

Yea, I have the exact same, don't tell me yours was burgendyÉ
All I can find in your album is the 98. Is a royale 98 possibleÉ

Sorry, something seems to be wrong with my question mark.

no the silver one is a 88 royale, and the champagne colored one is a 98 regency

Quality control tag from a vendor. Nothing to do with GM or the car.

Too bad. Would it be from the company that supplied or installed the speakers? It does say 'Olds' on it...

Vendor = Supplier.
Quality control (QC) = Inspection department.

Factory installations (regardless of the source) are done on assembly lines, by GM employees.


That only tells us that it was designed and manufactured for an Olds application. "inst. pan. /textron" indicates a part of the instrument panel manufactured by a company with the name "Textron". Probably a PC board made by one of its many subsidiaries.

It is possible that this tag originated in a GM receiving department, but it only shows that the part it was attached to, was checked/tested by "inspector #24".
