Can anyone make sense of the relationships of date to VIN? Seems like this should have been built in late January or early Feb. Also does this indicate a 3 speed. VIN plate is not readable on my screen - can anyone tell me exactly what the #s are on the plate from the photo? Murf

I can't read it either, to blurry.

I can not read the data plate either; however, the build timeframe would be consistent with when it should have rolled off the line.
Being a "03U" date code would place it in the beginning of July of '68 which would make it fall into the timeframe for a '68 HCS.

Hey Guys,
This car was built just before my car. It's the closest production number that I have seen to my Cal. My car has the production date of (July) 03U. However my actual build date was June 20 th confermed by my Marti report. It was built thirteen days ahead of schedule. It was shipped to Oklahoma City were it still is located. My vin is 8R01C168338. Hope that this might help.

This would be an early build for an HCS. I would still like to see the Marti on this one or at least check it out via Mr. Newitt or Mr. Teets. I think, although I would need to check, that the majority of the HCS' had build dates during the middle two weeks of July and not the beginning. But the DSO of 51 would definately make it a HCS.
