Serial numbers were on a plate on the left door lock pillar.
The 10-character number consisted of four elements. The first two
digits gave model code; the third digit was number of cylinders (6 or

(GM=Mound Road; GT=Trenton; NM=Marysville; GW=Windsor).

Next three digits showed displacement. Next letter gave engine type
(R=regular 318 cid V-8; T=standard 225 cid six; H=premium 225 cid
six).

 

Next came a four-digit manufacturing date code based on a
10,000-day calendar. The final four digits were the sequence number,
which began with 0001 for each day.

 

The 383cid V-8 and other engines were identified as follows:
