Joel,
Here is a picture close up of the casting date on the first production car,
Body 24, car number 138031. It reads 22.7.52.
This is on the lower right side and would be hidden when the starter motor
is bolted up. I'm not sure if this practice continued into later production
because in checking the engine block of a July '54 production BN1, the
number reads 25.6.Z which may or may not be some sort of date code. Note the
screw heads at either end of the date tag so it can easily be changed on the
pattern. These screw heads are also evident on either end of the 25.6.Z.
Hope this helps.
Rich Chrysler
