Can someone please answer cuda340's question, or at the least what it shouldn't be or hand grenade, ballpark or atom bomb WAG of what to order the label date, this is not an O.E. Gold restoration.............or is it shruggy wink


The SPD for my '70 Dart is 802, but the door sticker says 9-1969. So no, the month of the door sticker does not necessarily match the month of the SPD.

In general I would say that the date on the door sticker would not be earlier than the latest date code found on the car.



Agreed! I also have seen examples where the spo date was after the VIN sticker. The VIN sticker was pretty much one of the last things that seem to have been placed on the car with the exception of the window sticker. Remember, just because the fender tag has a date doesn't necessarily mean that's when it was built. Scheduled to be built, yes, but not the exact final assembly date.
