I'm guessing, tape decks were disappearing enough that management started checking lunch boxes at quitting time. Or something like that.What does 'PLANT SECUITY STEREO TAPE' mean on the window sticker?

How embarrassing. My weak excuse is that I'm surrounded with a bunch of pictures of door stickers that I'm sorting through.I read June![]()
Anyway, here's my take on the invoice: You can see that the Invoice price was $5432.90. Ink notes indicate a List of $6879, minus "Brass?" of $1446 (trade-in?) which brought the "Floor" to $5433, minus $139 for Hold/Back (which you can also see below 038 Destination Charge), making the OutTheDoor cost of $5293.70. Does this sound right? Can you spot any other interesting info? What is "VP 5-1-9" in different color ink?
Now, we have 228771 w/ VON 99822 and June Door Date, with its very extensive list of options and the hilariously misspelled PLANT SECUITY stamp. @69CoronetRT has already taught us that the 0422 at the bottom is the date the window sticker was produced (April) vs. the Door Date (June) [Got it right this time @ayilar].
My guess, window sticker was printed when Jefferson assembly was finished with the car PRIOR to Hurst doing their work. Nothing on the window sticker would change option wise post Hurst conversion. The door sticker is the last thing to be applied when the car came back from Hurst & was 100% finished and ready to send to the dealer/customer.The window sticker is printed in late April.
The VIN correlates to late April cars.
Yet, the door sticker tells us the car was not built until at least, five weeks later.
Do we see this much of a delay in scheduling to completion with other Hursts?
Are there any know specific parts shortages that delayed finishing cars?

Thanks for volunteering to look into that issue. Let us know what you find out.There might be some history/stories from the Hurst Olds camp that might shed light on some of these questions?
Esp as our Hurst was being done right in the middle of the Olds years.
