Does it have a VIN?

What does the VIN decode to?

Sounds like a '62 based on what you are saying. A non automotive person at a University might not have been fully up to speed on the whole model year vs calendar year cadence like we are, and which still causes confusion.

I wouldn't put a lot of effort into the whole "1st day of production, 2nd day of production" thing. The first builds in the model year start out slow, maybe even one or two on the first day, and then ramp up to full production over a period determined by the program team. It varies for every program for every plant for every model year, based on complexity of the change, line rate, number of production shifts, etc.

There's really no way to know unless you happened to be standing right there.
