VIN Decoding Help

[wooderson64]

Ive got a 1972 Chevy K20 Suburban and I need help decoding some of the numbers. I looked up the first few but need help with the last half. Here is the VIN: CKE262F124569
I know its a Chevy Suburban V8 produced in Flint, MI
but other than that im lost, can anyone help with the last few numbers? Thanks so much!!

K20 Suburban with a 327, 350 turbo trans/205 Trans case 37.5x16.5 Goodyears

The last 6 digits are usually the unit number (1xxxxx)...so your would of been the 24,569th burb off the Flint production line

so
C= Chevy
K=4x4
E=V8
2=5,200
6=burb
2=1972
F=Flint

124659= vehicle # off the flint line

I use this...probably one of the few things LMC has that I like http://www.lmctruck.com/icatalog/cb/full.aspx?Page=9

no it's the 124,569th unit built in the plant in 1972. The rig in front (unit 124568) or after (unit 124570) could have been a pick-up, blazer, jimmy, panel or another burb as all were built alongside each other at the same time
