That guys story about a ‘66’ RO23 has holes all the way through - Maybe his was a ‘super duty’ Belvedere? ......

All R0 cars were not built on that date, if you have proof that says otherwise, please share it. I have worked with a couple '67 R0 owners to put together as much VIN/Shipping Order data as possible (currently over 50% of built cars), and can comfortably say that these cars were built in packs over the course of a few weeks.
These cars have a spread of 16,000 numbers from the lowest VIN '67 R0/W0 to the highest vin. While it has been proven that Chrysler did not assemble cars in sequential vin order, the spread on these cars is much too far apart them to have been built within the same day, or even week for that matter. The shipping order numbers do seem to be sequential on the other hand, which would tell me that Chrysler set aside 110 car orders, to be filled as the units were sold/ordered by their respective dealers. The shipping order numbers do not directly correlate with the VIN numbers in any way.
