My 67 AIM also shows the front emblem placement with reference to 0/0 lines.  Check a little further in the manual for a page “SHEET METAL CHECKING”.  Mine was sheet B12 in UPC 11-13 and looks like this: http://www.chevelleinfo.com/body/emblems/sheet_metal_checking_side.jpg   The 0 horizontal line is 3.52” below the base of the fender/body and the 0 vertical line is, oddly, 38.92” back from the center-line of the radiator core support.

Hey Dale or any other list member, is there a page for the location of SS then 454 located directly beneath for a 1972? I have an assembly book, it gives the relation between the letters and #'s but do's not give a starting point on the fender . ie. 10''down from top of fender. 5'' in from door side. I need a starting point for all the other measurements to be in the right place.in construction we work off centers (center line) & (elevations). maybe you can tell me, I may not be reading the assembly manual the right way? any help is appreciated.

Tom,

 

According to a noted restorer, the base-line of “Sport” is on the same horizontal plane as the 2nd from bottom trim strip on the tail light and 1 1/8” inboard of the body seam.  See the bottom of this page http://www.chevelleinfo.com/body/emblems/emblems.htm for details.  There’s nothing in the AIM that I’ve found but the source does many fine restorations and I’d go with his measurements
