The build date is coded onto the trim plate located in the drivers side door jamb just under the windshield pillar post. This is a three symbol code. The first symbol is the month while the second two symbols is the day. The month code is as follows:
| A | August 1970 |
| B | September 1970 |
| C | October 1970 |
| D | November 1970 |
| E | December 1970 |
| F | January 1971 |
| G | February 1971 |
| H | March 1971 |
| I | April 1971 |
| J | May 1971 |
| K | June 1971 |
| L | July 1971 |
The day code is simply the day of the month. A code of G08 would decode to February 8, 1971.
