how do you figure the build date from the serial #?

thanks all   sb

I don't think you can. You can go to Carl Becks zhome.com registry and get close by comparison. 

Do you not have a door plate?

You're quite likely the only person who thinks he knows the exact day on which his car was made...

#6333. Built in 6/70. Currently getting floorboards and other 46 year old metal pieces replaced. Had a partial resto between the years of 1998 and 2000. Word to the wise. Do your own welding or be there while it is being done.
