No way to tell without a full VIN I think Dan,6bblGT does a little reverse engineering and has a serious database built. Taking the VIN sequence vs the build plant/factory and cid,etc. as to what model was built where and when.

June 1970 total Valiant production = 43,297 units 1970 Plymouth A-body VALIANTs ~260K VS. 1970-1974 E-body ~320K
