You might see it on the hood, rad support, fenders, grille, rear axle, inside the wheels: on anything that was built up remotely and then conveyed to the final line in sequence.

My truck was number "87" (my truck was built on a Monday, btw ).

That's interesting. My truck was taken off the lot in Sept of '70 (by the bill of sale) so unless it sat on the lot for months, its probably not #902 of the production run. Maybe that number for the month it was built? I need to break down the VIN I guess...

This is kinda like ancestry.com for gearheads, eh?
