Wholly smokes dude, that's quite a list, and laid out much nicer than the first page too. I only missed half of the GMC, can't wait to do Chevy. Tripled checked, I'm seeing cross-eyed.

Here's what I'm working on, if you'd like the layout give a yell. It's analysis friendly, you can sort and gather totals. Saves some space too - I suspect small enough to layout onto one screen. For now anyway.

Wow, hyper-links too, that's dedication. On the downside, this worksheet has those hyper-links, but as of now, I don't know how you'd paste them from the worksheet onto here for others to use. Perhaps you know how, since you set it up in the first place.

With assys, the guide accts for 1000s details such as OEM identifications& part numbers, written in short order. 700+ images include assm, illust., charts, and points of interest. Much of the info. applies to all 67-72 GM trucks, and to a lessor degree all 67-72 GM vehicles. My build thread, and more on the guide https://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/...d.php?t=730025

Re: The build date project

Steve McQueen huh? How cool is that.

Well I finished. In case you can use it, the worksheet's column showing page numbers have the hyperlinks - might be easier to work with.

GREAT job, you guys recorded 618 trucks. That was a lot of work, thank you. Here are the revised totals. Below that, see if all the data fits. The data is in the same order as the source, however the plants are in alpha. order.

The data source is per page #3, posts 63, 64, and 65, which contains the latest information having 618 records, and updated through post 440.

Well I finished. In case you can use it, the worksheet's column showing page numbers have the hyperlinks - might be easier to work with.

GREAT job, you guys recorded 618 trucks. That was a lot of work, thank you. Here are the revised totals. Below that, see if all the data fits. The data is in the same order as the source, however the plants are in alpha. order.

The data source is per page #3, posts 63, 64, and 65, which contains the latest information having 618 records, and updated through post 440.
Thanks Tony. It is nice to know how many trucks are on the list. Personally, I'm pretty content with the format on posts 63-65, so I don't think I need the file at this moment. However, it is good to know you have it in excel...If something catastrophic happened to the site/thread, your file would be a good backup.

Yours is a nice layout. If you ever want this, I can send it via email. It's interesting that Fremont has 1/3rd the reported trucks. I wonder if that's because they produced more, and/or the area east of them is so climate freindly.

I've been thinking about that for a couple days now.

I gotta go with "climate friendly".

Flint produced vehicles at 60 to 70 per hour, two shifts. That's one completed vehicle every minute of every working day.

Most of the other plants were in the mid 30's or 40's per hour (45 is typical).

I think you are seeing the attrition of vehicles produced in Flint that gave their lives in the salty midwest.

A majority of the Fremont dates are from build sheets, which I think is most of the reason why Fremont shows up on our list more than any other factory. When compared to Flint, for example, many of the door stickers that I come across are simply not added to the list because they don't add any build date value (ie. an April door sticker for a serial number that falls between two other known April serial numbers--i don't add the middle serial number to the list).

Sounds right. The data shows Freemont produced about 10K Chevy in March 1972. That's around 30 an hour, but excludes GMC. The Flint plant must have been huge.

Not following you, considering the factory is noted by the VIN. I did notice the records show lots of month/day/year build dates for 1972 Freemont though, but few or no day for 1972 Flint.

Not huge, so much, it's just they had the line rate cranked to "11".

Re: The build date project

Just came across this truck for sale. VIN door sticker and jam plate match (CCE142Z180178). I can't make out a date, however, records show #175341 built on 06/07/72, a 4837 difference. Thus, this truck is likely 06/1972

There are basically three ways to gather build date info:
1) Protecto plate
2) door sticker for 70-72 models
3) Build sheet

For the question on why Fremont trucks make up 1/3 of the list, I believe it is due to the fact that Fremont issued build sheets and most other factories (including Flint) did not. This increases the chance that a line item is added to the Fremont list in two ways:
1) Simply having a third data source (build sheet) increases the odds of discovering build date info for a given truck.
2) When you only have a protecto plate and (especially) a door sticker to narrow down dates, it takes a lot of trucks / data points to draw any meaningful conclusions.

To elaborate on point #2: Once you establish that 1F610000 and 1F620000 are both made in December (just making numbers and dates up), then you can safely assume that all other serial numbers in between those numbers are also made in December. And therefore, if I then find a door sticker for 1F611111 that shows a December build date, I don't add the 1F611111 serial number to the list. So even though there are a lot door stickers for Flint trucks in existence, they often don't make the list because the list already infers that 1F611111 was a December truck based on the known serial numbers. That doesn't necessarily mean that a higher percentage of Flint trucks aren't on the road--I'm just not listing all the serial numbers that I come across.

Clear as mud?

Yep, that would be my guess too.

That serial number is currently the last Fremont serial number on the list at this moment.

Re: The build date project

(I can't believe I haven't mentioned this yet, but):

Now would be a good time to remind you all that trucks were not necessarily built in VIN order.

Most plants had an accumulator, or body bank, between the cab shop and paint, and then again between paint and the trim line.

This allowed for a reserve of bodies to be drawn to keep the final line running in the event of a breakdown or stoppage in the cab shop or trim (which was often) and also for the shuffling of builds based on downstream workload leveling. For example, you can't have too many four speeds in a row, or too many A/C jobs in a row, or too many cab high running lights in a row, or too many dually's in a row, etc. It also allowed one to shunt a vehicle off to the side for an extended sheet metal or paint repair before shipping it on.

Fremont is one of the plants that did not have that. Risky move, but once the VIN was established the vehicles presumably stayed in that order all the way though (barring some catastrophe).

Flint - not so much. Vehicles could be shuffled around, shuttled off to the side and delayed by a day or two.

I would encourage you all to put a mental day or two around any published date. Although they are written in ink they are not necessarily written in stone.

Yes, I think we/I have come across a few potential examples of what you are referring to with perhaps some sequencing nuances. Some examples: 0A135688, 1Z639337, 2J160173, and 2Z109XXX.

The General Assembly Sequence Number is really what we want for this.

But it was not necessarily preserved or available, so we use the VIN for the next best approximation.

It's funny but nobody in the assembly plant cares about the VIN. It's just another part to be put on the correct vehicle, like a tune up label or Mulroney window sticker or SPID. The GA sequence number is the gold source when referring to a particular build.

But, once it leaves the plant, it's all about the VIN. Because it's all they know and have access to, typically.

Worked at an Assembly plant for 17 years.

Yes, The Sequence Number is all the Mangers went by.

Mostly to track defects and make repairs.
I work in Trim then the engine line, then Paint.

They were all Worlds apart on how the vehicles were in order.

The more vehicles produce an hour the less parts the technician would have to put on the vehicle.

With these Trucks being run at 30 something units an hour,
The person probably installed several parts on the truck at their job station.

That would be a little under a 2-minute line speed.

Some questions for both of you:
1) The sequence number is in on the top left of the build sheet, above the date, correct?

2) At what point is the build sheet printed with the serial number? It seems like the serial number would have to be included fairly early in the process or otherwise perhaps printed on the build sheet after some assembly has been completed?

3) Pretend I have two build sheets. One is sequence number 17647 (w/ s/n 2Z120845) and the other is sequence number 17699 (w/ imaginary s/n 2Z120897) and they both show a 11/12/71 build date. I think you are saying that is 100% safe to assume that sequence numbers in between those two were built on 11/12/71. However, at some point along the way, one of the sequence numbers could have been assigned a serial number outside the range of 2Z120845 and 2Z120897, or at least in a non-consecutive manner. Is that correct?

4) For 100 consecutive sequence numbers, how many of those trucks are likely to have consecutive serial numbers?

Maybe I'll start trying to include sequence numbers. Any other sources for the sequence number besides the build sheet? Firewall? SPID?

You almost had me straightened out, but then I read you wouldn't add 1F611111 to the list Could be I'm a lost cause. Good questions above.

I had forgotten about the sequence number.

Maybe! Let me try one more time.

For why I wouldn't add it to the list, here is a real life example from the 72 chevy list:
2A103580 = 9/71 (post 314)
2A107594 = 9/71 (post 196)

Both of the above are based on pictures of door stickers. Assuming the door stickers are accurate, we can safely assume that all serial numbers between 2A103580 and 2A107594 were built in September. If you found a door sticker for 2A106000, what value would it add to our list?...I would suggest no value is added. We already knew that all serial numbers between the two numbers above (including 2A106000) were September trucks.

However, if you found a build sheet for 2A106000 (and let's pretend the build date was 9/15/71) well now that provides value because we can now narrow down other serial numbers to the first half of the month or the second half of the month. I would add 2A106000 in this scenario.

Similarly, if you found a door sticker for 2A107599 that showed 9/71, I would also add that to the list because that provides new information that we couldn't prove beforehand. (It also would make the 2A107594 data point useless in that scenario).

Keep in mind that each post has a character count. Including the hyperlinks consumes a lot of the character counts. That is my main reason for not wanting to include useless data points on posts 63-65. In fact, that is why I had to split the list into three posts.

Re: The build date project

402Bowtie I was looking through the list and noticed a truck I recently sold, that I didn't know the build month so I didn't post it. I didn't realize the Protect O Plate had the build month. Post 440 8J119920. Nice detective work searching the internet for build dates.

I started out looking for my truck I know I posted the build sheet for. 8Z115454

71Shortbed402 - Nice work....lots of it.

Keith would be the main one to Verify these Questions.
That pertain (Directly to These Trucks)

I will give my input from the experience,
I had at another Auto manufacturing plant from 1992-2010.

Yes, it was a foreign plant and there is a 30-year gap.
Somethings will still apply.

I thought I knew a lot about vehicles till I worked there.

I had no idea how they put these together the way they do.

Okay First question: I will say Yes.

When I worked in the Paint Plant,
I worked in the sealer department.
One of my jobs was to put (tape) the
Broadcast (Build) sheet on the front door.

The vehicle had just moved thru the Bake oven after being Phosphate(Dipped) coated.

I paid attention to the Serial Numbers (Because I am a Car Guy)
They would be some missing every once in awhile.
I asked WHY?
They would get pulled to the side in Body shop/ stamping plant.
Then they got filtered back in.

Okay keep that train of thought.
I did not work where the were painted.
But I did sneak in there to see what was going on.

So now When I worked in the Trim section.
I seen the final results of the paint Plant.

For 1 or 2 of the years of employment I worked in Zone 1
I also tape a Brodcast (Build) sheet on the door when the car dropped down from paint.
Because they had to remove the other one to Paint the door.

This is where they dropped straight in from being painted.
There was a big (Corral) area Before that,
This is where the cars got sorted out,
as Keith spoke of. Because of trim levels and options etc.

As a technician , A person had more parts to put on an AC truck verses a Non/Ac truck.
If you had to build 4 of these Ac/Trucks in a row you would have to shut the line off.
Which stops Production.

So, this type of sorting (Messed the order of the serial # Up).

With my insight of this experience, I had at that plant.

The cab and frame would be the biggest factor of the order of this situation.

Because the serial # would be determined then.

If something happened after that,
It may change the sequence number.

I don't get it.

Just kidding. I had the impression you added everything to the list, but now I get your point. Other than that, interesting that not all factories produced build sheets.

Nope - I never said that.

All GM factories used build sheets; multiple sheets for each vehicle.

It's just they were never "planted" in the vehicle for future historians to find.

Some plants were better at cleaning them out than others.

Modern cars are still built with a piece of paper hanging off the front.

That would be a little under a 2-minute line speed.
This is correct -

A guy might have a "main job" like "Fender Set", or "Spare Tire Hang", or "Battery Install" but after they complete that part there are little wires to connect or route; other small things to fill out those extra few seconds.

40 years for me; across about a dozen different GM assembly plants (Flint, Pontiac, Ft Wayne, St Louis, Janesville, Oshawa, Fremont, Arlington, Silao, Wentzville, Mishawaka, Hamtramck come to mind), three or four pre-production shops and one skunk works (that I can't talk about).

I've been thinking about writing a thread about "How I got so Smart", or something like that, but in a nutshell: it's "sneaking".

Even before I started my engineering curriculum at Flint I had a stint in Personnel. One of my jobs was to deliver the mail. As a result, one learns not only where all the "monuments" are in the plant, but three or four ways to get there: front ways, back ways, sneaky ways, etc.

While you are sneaking around you are getting to know folks and learning about their jobs, and learning about the process, by osmosis.

Even after that, as an "adult" when I would go to these various other plants for new model launch, I would ask my plant host to show me around ("...show me where you put the VINs on", or "...show me the paint body bank", or "take me out to paint repair") to further my understanding. They were happy to show off their place and I was genuinely interested (that is, I was not being manipulative to curry favor).

Or - I would sneak around myself. I remember the first time I went to Wentzville they pretty much got me through the door and said "ok - we'll see you in a week". I had been there for about 10 minutes before they cut me loose to fend for myself, so - after finding where I was going to be working - I spend the rest of my time watching trucks get built and wandering around.

There is no shortage of things in a vehicle assembly plant to capture your imagination, if you are a car guy.
