Should we rename this thread? Maybe ... the Ask Yelmer when your truck was made thread. Lol.
Back to thread topic, what's the earliest/latest 1966 Vins we have so far, Mike?

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

Good question Bruce . I changed pc a while ago and the data did not transfer . I thought this thread was dead so i did not worry about it . I will need to go through the thread and compile . I was going through the papers on the 64-66 plant production to compile and post . but i have been busy . and had a slight concussion a few months ago that slowed me down . So i took a break from the green truck. I am starting to get back to it . I think yours was a very low production if i remember.

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

Yikes! Took a header, eh? Ooof! Hope you are now back to where you were before that.
Low production .. my trucks? .. nah, just low options on the turquiose one. Both 66's are Spring season Fremont trucks.

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

Cool, thanks! We found that my dad's 69 K20 also came out of the Fremont plant. Kinda cool to have both of our trucks made in the same place :chevy:

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

thanks, I was hoping it was one of the first, zero rust and been sitting in that yard since 91, should be a fairly easy resto

Fremont built truck late june 1966

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

Old thread, but i have one to add C1546J115463

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

Does anyone know at what point GM changed the Fremont plant code from H to Z...? My `64 carries the H code. #159704

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

I would like some info on my 65 Suburban, if possible. I know this is for 66 models, but...
My VIN is
C1465Z107588

It's a 65 Suburban, built in Fremont.
That's all I know. I would love to know where it was sold, but without any build sheet or other paperwork it's impossible My dad bought it in 1976 from the original owner, in Scottsdale, AZ if that helps any.
Thanks so much
Paul

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

mine is C1465Z118017,not that far apart.

it was bought in scottsdale originally from Ray Korte Chev.
there werent that many chevy dealers in phx area back in 65, Ray Korte in scottsdale and Courtesy chev in phx and i think it was Brown and Hoye in Glendale.

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

Whole lot of 66's out there. I'm Freemont 102742

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

C1446Z167332- Zero options, except Cal smog equipment. Fremont built and sold new from Prolo Chevrolet in Santa Cruz, Ca

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

I remember Ray Korte. I also remember when Brown & Hoye became Brown & Brown in Mesa(where we lived). Too bad they dont have records dating back that far.

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

Or start a new thread "Does anyone have a Z code '64 model year?" if you get no traction here. The 59,704 truck built in Fremont seems very late in the year still with the H code, leads me to believe Z was first used for the '65 model year.

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

Been searching off and on today and yes the Z code was for the start of the `65 model year....

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

Thanks Yelmer. I appreciate the information.

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

My dash cluster has a red ink stamp on the back of it April`64, so given that sub assembly parts to be installed two weeks to one month on the line, May even June build period.

Mine is c1546s101632 as far as i can tell i belive it is a 66 by vin but title reads that it is a 65

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

1546S101632 is a St Louis built truck 1966 early Sept 1965 1632 built truck from St Louis In 1966

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

Hello Yelmer. I have a '64 from St. Louis: 4C154S159776.

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

St Louis Truck built Jan 1964 appx mid month

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

So how many days into 1966 production is this one? Or how many units produced in all of September divided by working days.

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

12437 in Sept 1965 from St Louis

Re: Attn 66 owners looking for the 1 st and last 66 built
 

Very roughly averaged out:
22 working days in Sept '65
12437 @ 22 = 565 per day
serial # 1632 built near end of day on 3rd day of 1966 production at St. Louis
Earliest so far?
