That's the VIN from the ad; would have been final assembled on or about October 5, 1968 at the Norwood, Ohio plant. The body tag shown is from a car built early December, 1968 at the Van Nuys, CA plant. They restored the car to match the tag.

From the ad:

RARE ORIGINAL LOS ANGELES TRIM TAG
CODE 727 IVORY INTERIOR
CODE 72-72 HUGGER ORANGE

Unfortunately, the tag is not original to the car.

At least they didn't add the "CAUTION FAN" sticker :)
