Re: N.o.s rocks.

The bar code question was interesting...found this on wikipedia

"Computer Identics Corporation
In 1967, with the railway system maturing, Collins went to management looking for funding for a project to develop a black-and-white version of the code for other industries. They declined, saying that the railway project was large enough and they saw no need to branch out so quickly.
Collins then quit Sylvania and formed Computer Identics Corporation.[3] Computer Identics started working with helium-neon lasers in place of light bulbs, scanning with a mirror to locate the barcode anywhere up to several feet in front of the scanner. This made the entire process much simpler and more reliable, as well as allowing it to deal with damaged labels by reading the intact portions.
Computer Identics Corporation installed one of its first two scanning systems in the spring of 1969 at a General Motors (Buick) factory in Flint, Michigan.[3] The system was used to identify a dozen types of transmissions moving on an overhead conveyor from production to shipping. The other scanning system was installed at General Trading Company's distribution center in Carlstadt, New Jersey to direct shipments to the proper loading bay."

Re: N.o.s rocks.

So what do you all think OEM or NOS. What about the date codes?

Technically they are not New Old Stock. If the dealer still has them they are just "New".

Re: N.o.s rocks.

So how do the date codes work? Some are 1969 and some are 1971. These are cast into the lens. Did they use the old molds to make more stock?
