Default 69 ya chevelle wheels

Gentlemen was wondering were they still making 69 chevelles in October of 69 seems awfully late in the year! Just looking at my YA ss wheels and I have 4 dated in April one dated in June and one dated in October! It’s stamped ya could this be an early 70 wheel I know 70’s are normally stamped AO Thanks

Yea I’m pretty sure I answered my own question of it being a October of 68 wheel for and early 69 car! So my next question is what’s an acceptable dated correct wheel for a May built 69 chevelle

The early production YA wheels dated 68 are super rare.
They have a larger font.
May Built Chevelle wheels would / could be dated Feb/Mar or even early April.

Yes I know,but meaning do you know exactly what day was your car assembled.
If you have a build sheet,it will show this in box #10.
