LOUIS, Missouri; 5 = KANSAS CITY, Missouri; 6 = OAKLAND, California; 8 =ATLANTA, Georgia; 9 = NORWOOD, Ohio; 12 = BUFFALO, New York; 21 = JANESVILLE, Wisconsin except for # 21CA05 1001 to # 21CA11 4200 which were built on the Chicago's World Fair in 1933 on the show production line. Walkerville, Ontario; Oshawa, Ontario, and Regina, Saskatchewan, Canada, did not have plant codes and identification of Plants was by serial number.

1929, 1931-33 Canadian cars were assembled in Oshawa; 1930 in Walker Road, Walkerville, Ontario; 1929-30; 1930 and 1931 in Regina. 1929-32 Canadian Trucks were also assembled in Walker Road, Walkerville. Bodies were however produced in East Windsor [Walkerville] Plant in St. Luke Street.

U.S. 1932 and 1933 Models have the month code after the Model Code indicating the month of assembly. Canadian Models have sequential numbers without prefixes or production month codes.

The information below excludes Canadian Chevrolet Heavy Duty and Maple Leaf Trucks. Canadian model numbers use full-stops/periods between letters as per the Canadian listing below.
