The build date project

[71CHEVYSHORTBED402]

This is really turning out, thanks for the effort. Still can't zero my 72 Fremont 146xxx down to a single month, but pretty close. Fremont was really pushing them out too, they may have approached 9K a month at the time.

Any chance 71/72 Chevy Fremont trucks were the most plentiful? The results so far seem to imply so, perhaps age just caught up to 67-70.

Without specific dates you can't tell how many were produced per month, but here's where my 72 C20 would fall for Fremont, as a guide.......146xxx would be Feb. or Mar.

135708 Jan.
153077 Mar. Increased by 17369
161544 April Increased by 8467
164046 April Increased by 2502
168790 May Increased by 4744

I'm thinking Flint trucks may have been most plentiful (at least in '72) based on several VINs found online that start with a "3" after the "F" in the vin....as in 200,000+ (the first one started at 100,000) serial numbers for '72 Chevy Flint trucks. Just haven't been able to correlate build dates with those VINs that I am seeing.
