Location: Oley, PA | Here's the tag on the doorpost of my 1959 Chrysler Windsor.
From what I can figure out:
0504 = scheduled build date of May 4, 1959
513 = ?
M511
M = 1959
5 = Chrysler
1 = Windsor
1 = Jefferson Avenue Assembly Plant
117752 = Serial number? 17,752nd Windsor built at Jefferson Avenue for the model year?
104 = Trim Code 104: Gray cloth and vinyl
I have no idea about:
G H1 J2 K L M1 N6 Z
A B C D7 E5 F
XKX
X = Ivory White Upper
K = Turquoise Gray Poly Lower
X = Ivory White Insert
Any insight on the unknowns would be greatly appreciated or if my assumptions are wrong, please let me know.
