Default Help me date.my '68 please

Trying to tell what month production my 68 'vert is. VIN ends with 416064. The door jamb tag is mangled right where the week/month would be stamped and is no help, plus motor/trans are not correct. Any help is appreciated.

It may not fall any where. 68 running changes appear to have been made as the new parts became available without a specific time line. My car has the low seat back releases. The color keyed door close handles were added by about #19533. The NCRS Technical Information and Judging Guide has tentative dates for some of the changes.
