Vehicle ‘Tracking’ Numbers For 1968
Short answer: The important 1968 tracking numbers and where to find them:
- VIN: 13-digit, assigned at Fisher Body before Final Assembly (division, series, model, year, plant, engine + 5-digit serial). On a tag at the top LH dash; new for 1968, also stamped (minus series/model) on the engine block and manual trans case.
- Body Number: Fisher Body’s consecutive build number on the trim tag and Broadcast Sheet (2–5 digits; 1968 plants LOR = Lordstown, LOS = Van Nuys). No consistent pattern vs. the VIN.
- Engine Unit Number: 6 digits on the front RH face of the block (V-8s start with 2, 6-cyls with 6). A tracking number, also on the Billing History and Owner Warranty plate; no tie to the VIN.
- Identification Number: 6 digits on the Broadcast Sheet and bottom of the Window Sticker; trends higher with the VIN but isn’t directly sequential.
- Sequence Number: 3 digits, Broadcast Sheet only; plant scheduling, no tie to other numbers.
- Invoice Number: 6 digits preceded by a letter; billing only, on the Billing History.
