Y16 cars had SO / VONs assigned at the factory.

If a dealership ordered a car for stock it would have the number from that page of the order pad.

There are exceptions. One as an example would be a 999 paint car, the number from the pad would have been superceded by a new number with a letter prefix.

So, the order number isn't really all that useful. I wonder if the plant number 162... on my tag was for rr's, all 'b' bodies, or all cars made at the plant? Hmmmm
