            Really a nice car. Not real familiar with the 69's model year green, this 69's repaint color looks real close to like my 70's Donneybrooke Green.

                Actually the LO code became into usage in March (maybe earlier) for some L/88's. During about a 2-3 month period the car could have had an IT, MR, or LO. The MR is the rarest, from what I have seen on the juding field, of all the codes

                    Does anyone else have more info on the codes and which months of production they are associated with?

                              I don't have a '69 JG, but the Pocket Spec Guide shows "MR" as an L-88 with M22; also shows "LO" for the same usage. Shows "LV" as the L-88 with THM400.
