0036 is Hawthorn Green which is a fleet colour. The first part of the TRIM number should be 928 to match this.

If at first you don't succeed, just call it Version 1.0

B62 is an EJ code, EK codes do not start with a letter.

I would suggest that this ute was built after EJ Production started and may have been fitted with EJ type trim. B62 is triton Green but in a Panel Van. B67 and B72 are gaps in the EJ Utility, but also many EJ codes start A.

Can yu post a pic of the tag, or email to me?
