* There is no separation of El Camino versus other Chevelle body styles by plant. The production figures above are for all body styles of Chevelle and since only 3 U.S. plants did final assembly of El Caminos, only those 3 plants are listed.

Body dates and VIN sequence numbers shown in red are examples of 1967 Chevelles found that fall outside of the last reported VIN for that plant so these last reported VIN numbers may not be 100% correct.

(1) Chevrolet's published figure for the 1967 model year are 403,963 units. Subtracting the total of last reported VINs of each plant (393,843) from the published figure leaves 10,120 U.S. built Chevelles unaccounted for.

* Although there are known 1967 Chevelles with body dates in August 1966, August and September totals are listed in September only.

Caveats and Disclaimers:

The numbers shown are reported last VINs from each plant per month. The numbers above those in red are instances of matching VIN and Fisher Body plates to show VINs/body dates outside the published numbers. The Fisher Body Number plate build week not match the calendar week; meaning an example body date of 04A may not be the first physical or even calendar week of April. Productions are scheduled well in advance of actual build date and given it takes 3 to 4 days to physically build the car once it is scheduled, you can see where the body date will not always match up with the VIN sequence. Obviously the body plates, and the associated information, are stamped when the cars are scheduled, not as they roll by a particular station. Cars with 04A body dates may run into week 04B of production. GM wouldn't just toss out the existing body number plates with 04A just because the car didn't physically get completed until the following week.

In reality, don't place too much emphasis on the body date as opposed to the last reported VIN for a given month. The anomalies shown are shown for that very reason. It does happen and that should not be a basis for worry that your car may have had the body plate (trim tag) and/or VIN altered.

If you have trim tags/VINs plates with dates and sequence numbers that don't fall into the range of those shown below, please email me the trim tag and sequence number and I'll post the oddity. Email it to me via my contact page.
