VIN's of the Kaiser-Jeep 5 tons seem to follow the format of the Deuce VINs: The first 2 numbers are the "Lot", the next two are the "Chassis type", and the final 5 are the sequntial serial number starting at 10,000. ( for that lot)

My question is, do we have info on the "Lot" identifier and "Chassis type" indentifier? Such as contract dates?

So far I have found a 1965 M54A2 with lot of 54 and a 1968 M54A2 with lot of 96. Both have chassis type 25.

My new M54A2 has a lot of 95 and chassis of 25. I am trying to back into the build year. (Main data plate gone) The axles do not have a date, nor have I found the USA number.

Edit: The CARNAC report shows the truck to be a 1968. I have the VIN from the frame.

M813A1

Have you checked the frame near the steering gearbox for the VIN # 's Should be stamped into the frame it might be included there
