Tarrytown 68 chevrolet

Can't locate the blue sticker.

Also curious to production numbers for tarrytown in 68 If that's available ?

Thanks Brad

Re: The build date project
 

I think your build date would be 12/4 or 12/5. I saw your POP posted on another thread so I added it here.

Not much exists to my knowledge. Your pic is the highest 8T serial number on the list at the moment. Hopefully we find some more and can get an idea how many trucks they produced that year. Also, you won't find a blue door sticker until MY 1970.

_________________________________________________

On a side note, I have updated post 50 to include hyperlinks for each reference post. I also started inferring a few a dates that can be confidently narrowed down to a few days or even a particular day; those dates are italicized.

Re: The build date project
 

Really appreciate it.

Re: The build date project
 

I apologize if it’s already on here, but I didn’t see it on the list.
May 72 Flint built. Rear axle date code is E(5)24/72. I haven’t tracked down the others yet.

Re: The build date project
 

Nice! That's the last 2F3 serial number on our list at the moment. I'm betting a build date on one of the last days of May. If you can get an engine or transmission date, that may narrow it down more.

Re: The build date project
 

The engine is stamped V0525TDJ. May 25. Flint engine.

Re: The build date project
 

'71 Flint GMC, F119181. blue sticker dated 04/71. Can't find the build sheet.
I'm guessing the VO428TBC engine translates to April 28. Were the complete engines stamped at installation? Would that be the build date. Want to know for it's 51st birthday next year.

Re: The build date project
 

The three dates are 4/28 as you mentioned for the engine, 4/23 (D23) for the rear axle, and 4/27 (117th day of year) for the transmission. With the build date sticker of 4/71 (and the D (April) by the chevy symbol on your paper), I would guess the truck's build date would be 4/29 or 4/30. Thanks for posting! I added it to my list on post 50.

Awesome additions guys. I’ll start getting the main list updated real soon.

Here is one
Posted via Mobile Device

Re: The build date project
 

'72 Chevy
2S191922, which puts it as a 5/72 build in STL based on info others have provided. No build sheet or door sticker anymore, but I have documents showing showing a delivery date of 6/1/72 in Ft. Leavenworth, KS from the Warren, MI plant.

Re: The build date project
 

Just noticed....Anyone else realize that it appears there were dedicated assembly lines in 1972 at the Flint plant? One for trucks (2F3 and 2F7 serial numbers) and another assembly line for Blazers and Suburbans (2F1 and 2F3 serial numbers).

But it appears that in 1971 the two lines did all models--trucks, blazers, and suburbans.

EDIT: On second thought, maybe the above is not 100% true. The 2F1 truck in post 235 disproves my theory.

9Z873496 = 06/24/69 (post 302) 175th day of 1969. Similar to post 290. I read a thread where someone suggested "DD" stands for "delivery date." The way the plate is stamped, the factory would have had to have stamped it (unless the dealership re-riveted it with correct rivets?), so I'm counting it as a build date until someone more knowledgeable can explain the process.

Re: The build date project
 

In updating my list on post 50 today, I realized we are limited to 50,000 characters per post. Therefore, I have split my list into two lists: GMC's on post 63 and Chevy's on post 64. Both are updated through post 302.

Tyler--you'll be running into the same problem soon too. FYI (Edit: on second thought, you may be ok for a while. I think my hyperlinks are eating up my 50k-character allowance.)

After today's updates, it appears the last 2S Blazer was produced at the end of March '72. I'd be curious if anyone can find a Blazer with serial number higher than 2S174000. Anyone have one?

Adding these for easy reference. Even though the site I found this is a chevelle site, much of the info seems to apply to our trucks.

Re: The build date project
 

1970 Chevy K10 - Tarrytown NY. 0T101909. It was built somewhere between 8/18/69 and 9/30/69. I have a photo of a metal tag secured to the back frame of the bench seat that is dated 8-18-69. (Is this a known "usual" thing?) I also have the original bill of sale when the owner bought it from the dealer in Rome NY on 9/30/69. That pretty much brackets things!
