Doesn't the Build Sheet have this info OR is that date just the date the sheet was born?

I found build date on my #553 written with a grease pencil on inside drivers hood... 10/27/089
Also I ubderstand it's on inside rear bumper passenger side, but I didn't look for it there. Hope this helps...

I would think a car numbered that low would be late 89 not late 90. According to my build sheet, my car 2562 was built 90/145 or May 25, 1990.

The hoods were dated when they were built which is probably a few days before final assembly.

The build sheet has the date and time at the top center. Format is:

Date: 89/244
Time: 07:31

This is my car. So it was built on the 244th day of 1989. I am not sure if the time is when the car started down the line or when it was finished. Does anyone know?

The cars got a build date of 10-90 on the door jamb sticker,at least one date on the overflow container is 10-90.

I have heard conflicting reports on the actual date on the paper work if its the day your car was built but it is deffinatly the day that the paperwork was printed at the plant.

The car may have been a few days after but I think that is the closest you will be able to guestimate.

The door sticker is the month for sure but actual build date I think is a mystery.
