What do these "Y" codes mean on a broadcast sheet?

on my TA sheet in the top right block for special delivery and handling it has as follows:

Under the "build spec for" the is a 5

under the sold car sales bank there is a 4.

I was reading Barry's TA newsletter with a breakdown of the build sheet numbers (he has recieved mine) and see there are just a few with pedal dress up and the half-ring on the steering wheel, as my car has .

Y05 69-70 Build to USA Specs

Thanks 440Beep. "Sold Car" means someone spec it out and ordered it?

Y codes typically have something to do with money / pricing / accounting.

In the case of a Y14 car, someone placed a deposit on it at time of order. It could have been a dealership that ordered a car to their specifications for a speculation sale or a customer at a dealership.

thanks Barry, I know you mentioned something about it after recieving the buildsheet. In looking at all the do-dads on the car I am left wondering if the dealer didn't order it as an attention-getter.

I recieved the past newsletters and COMPLETED the check I sent you. Thanks!

This Spring, I hope to track down the painted top TA I mentioned a while ago.

I laughed at the check, I do the same thing once in a while.

Best of luck on the V02 T/A, it would be cool if a fourth one popped up.

Probably a silly question, but was it actually possible to go to a factory and special order a car, and then pick it up later that day/week/when it was completed? (bypassing the dealer network)

Or have I just heard "One Piece at a Time" too many times?
