Default Need 72 build date

Help with build date on a 72 Vin # 1Z37W2S516681.
The NCRS on line guide does not do 72!

There is a time/build code in the upper right corner of the trim tag. Probably has an H in it. 16681 would have been assembled in March, 1973.

Last February car was #15020; last March car was #17613. http://www.timeanddate.com/calendar/index.html Check the number of working days in March, 1973. Divide days into total March production, and you'll be pretty close to daily production for March.

Approximately March 21, 1972 for your 1972 corvette ...
see: http://www.c3registry.org/index.php?...lator&uid=4486

------------------------------------

(you can confirm with the trim tag date)
trim tag will show H20 (Monday 3/20) or H21 (Tuesday 3/21)
