I am not sure how to tell which plant my truck was assembled?
The engine was from Flint. How can I tell?

the assembly plant is within the VIN. Search for a "VIN decoder" for your generation of truck (60-66?) here on this site.

. . . .

Here are a couple on my 70's firewall.

The "B" in the upper right of the first picture is for the Baltimore plant.

The "635" in the lower left corner of the first picture is the job number.

The "AIR" on the inside of the right fender was to let the assembly line works know that this truck would have air conditioning installed in it.

Great thread Oe...

I just brought home a '66 4K series GMC with a pile of options....from air brakes to suspension to HD wiring harness....
I am having probs with pic's right now, but I'll post up a few when I get over my problems..

..
This thing has more ' Factory Graphiti ' than any I've seen so far..ie: "HDWH" ( maybe "Heavy Duty Wiring Harness"...?....duh I guess) on the underside of the hood....a bunch more on the firewall.
Pretty cool.
I really like the paint shop's ID work.

Painters are like Bass Players.
Plenty of self esteem....Maybe even a pain in the a$$.....but ya sure gotta have 'em.
Notice the mid to late eighties painters didn't sign their work....?

Huhh.

I sure do wonder how they new that $hit was gonna fall off so quick.
