The above is from post #106. It appears that all 69 trucks start with "8" after the plant letter... ie. 9S8xxxxx. So if you see this, 70c10-08, please verify the vin. Thanks

Thanks for sharing! Guessing yours is a January build, but let's try to find out for certain.

A project like this is bound to have some errors and confusions... I think we're doing pretty good at staying on top of everything.

I'd love to see more of that olive on light yellow truck!

Here are some photos (Very poor photos) from a 71 C10 in a wrecking yard that I pulled the rear axle out of for my Burban. Hopefully they are useful. The build sheet was missing.
The build date on the door sticker is 12/70.
And I believe the VIN is CE1?12609628.

That's a helpful one. Looks like 1Z609628, which likely is an early December 1970 build. Thanks for posting!

I was going by the VIN number off of my S.P.I.D. I've got the protecto plate lying around somewhere if I can find it I will try to verify the VIN number but, this is all I could see on the S.P.I.D.

10/13/66 <build date <10/27/66...The rear axle has a 10/13 date code. I think the last digit of the "date produced" box is a "7." Is it possible the build date and the invoice date are the same date?
