help with Vin number
I have 4 Chevy Express Cargo Vans two of them have the number 1 for plant assembly which is Wentzville Mo the other two vans have the letter X for assembly all I could find in the service Manual was Experimental Engineering Manufacturing Services! Can anybody give me some information... where this plant was at any thing at all? Thank you...

Google is a might fine thing 
According to Wikipedia X = Fairfax, Kansas and is now a closed plant.
It was for 1987 or older vehicles...
List of General Motors factories - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I just got a brand new 5.7 motor for my express van yesterday and I ask the parts guy if he could figure out the X on the Vin number... He came back and told me that it showed the Oshawa Truck Assembly Plant in Canada I googled the plant and it does not show any production of Express Vans at the plant but I will take the guys word for it....also the plant is closed down maybe they had a side assembly line for Vans at the plant

Hi Cargovanroy,
Welcome to the Chevy Forums.
Is there a basic mechanical query you were
trying to contact the original assembly line
regarding, or were you just interested in the
vehicle origins for historical purposes?

Well, did you know you can get RPO code lists from the internet?
You can track a lot of important OEM build information directly
by referencing the RPO codes on the "Service Parts ID" sticker
in your glove box.
