Sept 4th week - must be one of the last built.


Wouldn't it be one of the first ? Sept 4th week '68. Note the body number and the presence of the early 6/7 tach. </div></div>


The X-codes didn't appear until 2nd week of December 1968, that concludes that it was built in September 1969.
When they started production in August of 1969 the body number sequence were reset but the VIN-sequence continued. Initially they were intended to be 1970 year model since the 2nd Gens were delayed.


Another fact is that COPO's were not built at all in September 1968, they came later.
