I'm just riffing off the thread about the youngest barnoor and I thought it would be cool if everyone posted the birthday of their bus to see if any were made on the same day.

mine is...

may 17th 1967 I forgot the chassis #... I gotta go look Very Happy

ok as I'm looking at the M-code - mine says

07 06 0 <------> according to the Identification Forum shouldn't this only have 4 numbers? Day / Month/ Year? Confused

7 June 60?
{XX X X Date of manufacture in day/month/year format - year was removed in 1963 and placed as the first digit of the VIN #.
Month is 1-9 for Jan. - Sept., then O, N, D for Oct, Nov., and Dec. respectively. }
