NUMBERS (Part 3 of 4)

GM3857752 KH54189 I248 (I=September, 24= day of month, 8=1968)
The KH number on the drum could be a Kelsey Hayes part number (the OEM).

Rear wheel hubs

GM3763180 I268 (I=September, 26= day of month, 8=1968)

Hub and drums: The last four characters are the date code. The first character is probably a straight line letter I and not the number 1. This would correspond to the other September codes.

1100839 42A, 8J14 12VNEG
8 = 1968, J = September ( "I" gets skipped on alternators), 14= day of month
This looks like it’s the original alternator which is kind of amazing.

Top of both frame rails at rear 95
Lower frontmost crossmember 95
Rearmost crossmember B-CE20934
The 95 appears in three places and may have been used as an assembly line sequence number (my guess). CE20934 matches the SPID model number. I have no clue what the "B" might mean.
