Do a quick online search for Mopar VIN decode. You will get all you need.

Just noticed your SPD (scheduled production date) is 6/23. My 68 Coronet has a date of 6/26; 3 days after yours. What factory did yours come out of? Mine came out of the St. Louis assembly line. Looks like yours is out of another location.
looking at your sequence number.

Still cracks me up that Plymouth called the base interior (shared with Belvedere coupe) "Deluxe".

Cool car, would be gorgeous restored.
