Cool. That would probably be Flint, Mich. My '71 Jimmy K/1500 (but not a K/750) was made at the St Louis, MO plant. I have a '72 K/5 parts tub with an F in the VIN.
I wonder did some plants specialize in K/5 production, or did they all build some? Have I ever seen a Fremont Blazer? Don't remember...
