TomTIII Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 Is there a reference that would date (ie month) the manufacture of a 1931 Chrysler CM6 ser# 6,536,927?thanksTTA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted June 25, 2015 Share Posted June 25, 2015 (edited) Yes. Go to the Chrysler Historical site and for a fee of about $45.00 you will get a copy of the build card which gives the birth date and trim items for your car.

Gunsmoke Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 Production of new model year cars in those days typically started in September and ran to June following year, with a couple of months then left to tool up for the next year's model, so about 10 months of production. About 37,000 CM6's (ser #'s 6,520,501-6,557,327) were built, an average of 3700 per month. Your car is about #16,000 in the production sequence, so by simple extrapolation, your car would have been built circa early January 1931. Of course if you want to be precise, $45.

Taylormade Posted June 26, 2015 Share Posted June 26, 2015 It's only twenty-five bucks for early cars (not sure of the cutoff date). Just got mine with the build card and some ads for the car (1932 Dodge Brothers). The build card lists options, body style and delivery destination. Some things on the card are not explained - mine had the numer 103 after the body type, which may be the color code (my car was originally black) and was stamped with the word PLATE, which may mean plate rather than safety glass.
