From memory it was 1M, it is the sequential number of HK's built at Dandenong, this was the number used to track the cars on the assembly line on a Dandenong body. What i'm not sure of with these was how they tracked the Elizabeth bodies on the Dandenong assembly line, ie what number was used and also was the Elizabeth body assigned a Dandenong sequence number or not as it never appeared on the ID plates unless the body was constructed at Dandenong.

PM me the vehicle's details, i'll send them to Ben Stewart and get you a build date estimate based upon other cars on the Holden Monaro Register.
