has anyone seen this mo 44 before I recall reading something about it once before but not sure any help would be appreciated thank you
Yes Gary I see what your getting at. I too have VN car. (12B) with a body scheduling code of (I406) and I was figuring a Monday or Tuesday build.
So Saturdays and Sundays don't come into play in this code?
Rick, of course this is just me thinking this all out in my head and I could be wrong. I'm sure if others are reading this they are calculating too. Seems to me the VN plant can be figured out to the day but the NOR plant is a bit more difficult to pin it down.

Here is the tag, my theory is it was built on Halloween plus it's orange :)
I'm just trying to make sense of all the numbers...
At 57/hr, they would have had to work more than 8 hr shifts daily to meet the production achieved, as shown in the table below. (8x57=456, 9 x 57 = 513, 10 x 57=570, 11 x 57 = 627, 12 x 57 = 684, etc...)
Were they always working two shifts over the entire prod year? Adding or stopping shifts would seem difficult to do based on manpower?
Thanks John,I'm just trying to make sense of all the numbers...

They worked two 8-hour shifts. 16 hours x 57 per hour = 912 per day.
Adding or dropping shifts was a manpower training and quality nightmare due to seniority-driven "shift-bumping" - it wasn't done.
John Z , I worked in production for 25 years and we worked 24 / 7 three shifts . Why wasn't the car companies working 3 shifts all those years? Terry

Was the difference in the 912/day, and what they actually achieved, made up in firebird production?? or ??
I also have an 01C with I120 , the production date on the build sheet is 1/15.
