Hi Guys, I'm in the middle of a resto on my HK Monaro and I was wondering about the numbers painted on my diff housing. I would like to know if the number painted in yellow is a part or pick number and same for the number painted in white on the front crossmember.
She's a very original old girl and I'd like to bring it back that way.
thanks in advance.

It is a fairly low mileage car and very well preserved, It also had white paint brushed on the outrigger of the front end, this I've already done, It just doesn't make sense being part numbers as I can't find them in my parts manual. The diff had 7448413

I doubt the part number would in the manual as this is the manufacturing part number for the entire assembly. when a car is being built a complete assy is ordered for the vehicle production line. The dealer spare parts book you have would list the individ |

Paul,
Your car from memory is an early car and would have been assembled without a production broadcast sheet, these came in about January 69, so the codes used for your car would be very difficult to obtain.
When the Broadcast sheet was introduced

Your car would have a "build sheet" as such. Picking numbers are painted or stuck on, like the crossmember 2 letter code or sticker like your RA and RB on your horn.
If you want to exchange info on build sheets let me know.
