When did the new production model year start each year for the GMC motorhome.

For example, VW's started in August. So a vehicle built in September would be the next years model.

The reason I ask is that sometimes a vehicle built in say October 77 (a 78 model) would get registered as a 77 and not as a 78. Likewise a vehicle built in July of 77 (77 model) that didn't get sold until January would get registered as a 78.

I just discovered that the 77 Royale that I'm picking up has a VIN number indicating it to be a 78. The production sequence number is pretty low (439).
