137073 = October 1962
Also, the 9 should be an 8

My serial number is 8305 S 243043. If I'm reading everything correctly, That makes it a Universal CJ5 , Open Body, S Smog, 2 Right Hand Drive, F4-134 without emission, However my 1968 is a Left hand drive, V6. If it had the Smog system, it was removed. Am I reading it correctly? The serial number plate is on the driver's side of the firewall. I can't find a decoder for the las 4 characters. Thanks in advance.

This is the most extensive early VIN decoder I have found. I will be adding early CJ VIN decoding here soon.

Thanks for the reply, that VIN Decoder is where I got the information listed in my first post. However, thank you.
