I doubt that Newell even has anyone left on staff that could decode those numbers. Back in the 70's and early 80's every company just made up their own Serial (VIN) numbers. Likely the last three digits of the motorhome number is the size of the engine.

Prior to 1983 when the 'new accounting system' started counting coaches at '1', there is no way to determine a coach number other than knowing that there were 384 coaches built between 1967 and 1983. You are fortunate to know that your coach is certainly in the first 120 Newell's ever constructed.
