Thank-you! The letter code appears to be a poorly stamped "E", which would make it 1973 manufacture. However, the number is very high, suggesting a 1974 model manufactured in late 1973. In this particular case we know it is a 1974 model based on the colour, as the 1973 version was catalogued in Flamboyant Gold, while the 1974 model is spec'd in Imperial Red.

Hi T-Mar
The Red bike had been somewhat buried in
my shed. I was able to get in and dig it out, I found the serial number where you indicated it would be.

It's slightly new than I thought, as the J-code serial number indicates 1966 manufacture. In 1966 and 1967, this model was the Rambler 500. Typically, we see these with the sharknose chainguard and the headbadge sticker that were introduced at his time. However, this is smaller than the juvenile and standard sizes that usually surface and looking closer at the chainguard it does look like it may say Rambler 500, so I'm suspecting that CCM didn't incorporate the updates into the junior and sidewalk versions. I'm looking foward to learning the Ranger serial number.
