The trim tag has several numbers embossed into plate, body style either 437 for the coupe or 467 for the convertible, color code of paint, style/color of interior, and the number of the body as it began its assembly. The original 63-67 corvette midyear trim tag is a very important part of the judging process for NCRS.

They were changed frequently. It has been estimated that for 1967 model year some  3500-4000 corvettes suffered this fate.
