Default Re: Partial VIN ID

How did the first 3 digits of the VIN work out like that? I know that with Camaros,it is 1 for Chevrolet,the digit of the year,then a letter to denote the car's assembly plant. My example would be my 73 Camaro where the engine numbers would be 13N108600 since it was the 8600th 73 Camaro built in Norwood. Did other year/body styles do it different.

Also the numbers before the CLB. The casting is November or December 19th of 70. The stamp on the pad looks like it could be a Oct 10th assembly date,or a January 5th date with a 1 before it. Would the first 1 denote the year?
