Two published sources broadly agree on these year breaks.
US-built serials start with C; A = Belgium, B = England. Ford plates from 1965 on carry a production date code such as 5L29C: the first digit is the last digit of the year (5 = 1965 or 1975, the serial table tells you which decade), the letter is the month (A = January through M = December, I is skipped), the two digits are the day, and the last letter is the shift.
