The LOA is in the correct location on the tag that designates the GM plant that built the car. LOA is a mystery - LOrdstown Assembly? Usually a U for the Lordstown, OH plant.
Does your VIN have a U in it?
The 'D' is the fourth 'WEEK' of the month it was built. There should also be a two-digit number before the 'D' on the left side of the tag that designates the MONTH it was built. The mounting rivet is right next to it.
If it was 10D - then your 1972 Vega was built in the fourth week of October, 1971.
