So how do they solve these Trim Tag questions ...
For example, August 1980 (I found this while I was looking up the 08E on my Trim Tag)
The 1st week of August in 1980 only included the 1st (Friday) so would the the 4th week of July only include the production days of July 28-31 and August week #1 production would just include 1 day??? ... Or does the 1st week of the production month mean the 1st week that includes all days of that month? If that is the case than 08E can't be the 5th week of August, since there isn't one.
Are you as confused as I am at present???
Bryan, in these cases I pray for a build sheet, as it has the exact date that yours schedule day was.
It should say 8-26 or something like that.
Now, although I'm not sure of exactly how they split date codes up between wierd months like that, but I'd venture to guess that there was either no 08A, Or that 1st Friday (8/01) was stamped 08A.
If not they just may have called it 07E then trucked on into 08B that following monday.
That puts 08E From the 25th to the 29th
The model year changeover was 08D for 78 and 79.
