Chuck Collins, I believe, was an AOAI member who was instrumental in starting the Washington DC chapter, back in the early 70's.

You might want to look up the local SDC chapter. They may have a few hooks in the area....

The story that has been told over the years, is that the California DMV established a new digital registration system around the time the 63's came out. The minimum number of characters accepted for a registration was eight. The Avantis only had seven ( 63Rnnnn), so the "A" or "B" was appended to make up the difference. The reasoning for one or the other, has never been revealed.... but someone knows... Nor is it known how far into the 60's that this process was continued. Any 64's with an A or a B... It was in mid 63 that the mandate to remove the 63 from the serial numbers was issued and to only use the Rnnnn. Any 63's or 64's with RnnnnAAA. Probably was a lot of sausage made in the DMV in those days.

Google is your friend ( most of the time) A 1981 305 SBC (Small Block Chevy) engine that was part of an original equipment system uses a 2-wire, non-heated oxygen (O2) sensor. The 1981 model year generally utilized an early, single-wire or two-wire narrow-band O2 sensor design. Recommended Parts You can find suitable replacement parts using these references: AC Delco (OE Style): Original Parts Group lists an OE style 2-wire sensor, part number L980047, which is a direct fit for 1980-81 GM vehicles with a 305 engine.
