The original factory build sheet reads 1GCHR33N4JJ140243, split across two lines in the VIN box. A Canadian new-vehicle information statement and dealer pre-delivery inspection sheet carry the same identifier. This is the carryover-body R30 crew-cab pickup, model CR30943.

The build sheet explicitly names the Janesville plant in Wisconsin. It lists L19 with a 7.4-liter engine field, Z81 Camper Special equipment and Z49 Canadian pricing. Both the charged-to and shipped-to dealer fields name Ed Nolin Chevrolet Oldsmobile in Didsbury, Alberta.

What remains open

Transmission codes MM4 and M20 are retained as printed; no exact transmission model is assigned here. The 07-11 schedule field has no year and is not presented as a complete build date. Running-board installation sheets in the packet show accessory instructions, not proof that those parts were installed at the factory.
