This information was obtained from my copy of the
Chevrolet Parts Catalog for model years through
1975.

This translation of the VIN is valid for 1969-1972
vehicles, only.

14 1 77 1 U 168590

14 denotes
the vehicle series

1 indicates base engine
equipment. When the third digit is odd (1,3,5,7), the base
engine is an L4 or L6. When the third number is even
(2.4.6.8), the base engine is a V8.

77 indentifies
the body style

1 denotes the model
year

U denotes the assembly plant (Lordstown,
Ohio)

168590 The sequence number
