vin ?
I'd like to get an accurate handle on this...
My VIN plate is as follows: C - Chevrolet (1972 only) C - 2wd E - 8 cylinder 6 - 60 series 1 - Conventional Cab? 6 - Check #? V - Plant location? 104528 - (4,528th unit built) Any input is welcome. This plate is about it for identifiers. [btw, the vin is NOT from truck in my avatar]

Re: vin ?
We used to carry these VIN cards around in our pocket (along with our pocket protector and note cards).
1 = "Conventional Cab" just means a regular two door body style with a long nose (not cabover, and not four door) 6 = "Check digit" - my card doesn't show a check digit; check digits did not come into use until 1981. In any case it is a randomly assigned digit to fill that spot so that one can't arbitrarily re-create a VIN after the fact. (You have to know the specific check digit in order to know the accurate full VIN). V = Pontiac Michigan (South Blvd, as opposed to Opdyke Rd Light Duty, which started with GMT400, or headquarters at Montcalm/Joslyn, which was passenger car only). K
