LOS cars have the w/o on the tag and that clearly tells us the production rate.
For this car (though the w/o is blank), that would be about the 8th day of production.

I could not open them on my phone but my desktop PC opened them. That's a new datapoint.

Partsman - Can you tell us the drivetrain information? Have pics of any of the engine, trans or rear end if original to the car?
