Date of Manufacture

[1965DodgeD100Dave]

where would the date of manufacture be on my early 65 Dodge D100?

Probably not the same, but on my 71 it is on between the drivers door hinges on the cab pillar. A decal.

if you decode the vin it might tell you.

try that with your vin, it might tell you.

if you have a Factory Service manual, it should have a way to decode your vin.

Either you entered it incorrectly or you have a misstamped VIN plate. The other possibility is that you have a Canadian VIN. The VIN won't give you the exact date of manufacture either but will give you a sequence number. Some of the later trucks had a sticker in the door opening with the month and year of manufacture.

The other thing that can happen is for some reason the DMV needed to issue a new VIN, these typicaly have the agency name on them.

Tried to decode my 66 D0dge W100 VIN and it came up invalid. Yes its a Canadian Dodge truck. E-mailed the registry Pics and stuff for help and to register my truck I hope.

on the earlier trucks the VIN does not give you the exact date of manufacture - just the year in which the VIN fell into.

the only place you'll find the exact date is the build sheet - mine was scheduled on 7/10
