We met Jeffrey Bernard at Carlisle -- a great guy, with a '59 Belvedere sedan under resto. Jeffrey needs help decoding the VIN and data plate. Can anyone help?

Thanks
Dan

I can help with VIN # = M25 means '59 Belvedere with V8 engine - 4 indicates built in Los Angeles - 103512 means it was the 3 thousanth, five hundred and twelth Belvedere built.......I got a question about that....is that production # for the LA plant only or all 4 plants combined? On the data plate info - I saw the decoding of that info once in a book I have but can't recall or find which book it was in. Does anyone know what book that info is in.?
