Too bad this sat in the dirt like that. May or may not be a GT. Header on one side only?

More pictures for posterity including the fender tag, its definitely seen better days and is a parts car but its got potential too as its a real GT.

The link does not work. Can anyone post the proper link?
 
A shame, looking at how deep those tires are buried in the dirt, it has been there a very long time and was probably a restorable car
when parked. Let’s face it, owners like this that save a great car, like a GT, with the good intentions of restoring it one day, get sidetracked or life just gets in the way…..making the remaining GTs more valuable and unattainable.
 
OK. SPD determines order down the line.
How many cars are produced in a days time?

How far apart could vin's be on the assembly line? 100K/ entire vin spread ?

No.

The SPD is simply an administrative function and a rough projection of scheduling. We find it on early documents sent to dealers well before actual production date could be known.

Plants don’t really care about the SPD or VIN. They are simply numbers to them. The car gets built when the car gets built regardless of the SPD or VIN.

Cars are built well before and after the SPD. There is absolutely no way to deftermine production day or comparable production sequence by a VIN or SPD.

Some plants printed broadcast sheets on a sequential basis. This is one relatively reliable way to compare production order between two cars. If the broadcast sheet sequence number between two cars show a difference of less than the average production capacity of that plant, one could consider they were in production aka “on the line” at the same time.

Shipping documents to dealers showing cars with consecutive VINs could infer cars were on a trailer at the same time indicating the cars were in production at the same time.

Average daily production varied. Small plants like LA or Newark built far fewer cars than Lynch Road or Hamtramck. We can use VINs and some published records to help determine model year production. (YET…..sometimes those two sources do not balance.) Then, we know how many days were in the union contract (~ 250 days) so we can determine a rough average daily production.
