Odd VIN Number for Tradewind

Another question to folks in the know -- I posted a photo earlier of a spare tire cover on a Tradewind International and on the same unit have noticed an odd thing about the VIN.

The tag says 24D-0170 which translates as 1960 Tradewind Double. Made in CA.

Below that info on the same tag is stamped 12/58.

Is it possible that there was a mistake made at the factory when this unit was tagged? I have another 60 Tradewind CA model that is a Land Yacht model. The International model Tradewind has some older type features such as a manual pump in the kitchen sink and different roof vents. I think it is a much earlier model than my 60 Tradewind Land Yacht.

Any thoughts as to the true vintage of the beast?
