I have an 8' NCO with the serial number 77203965 made in Fort Lupton, Colorado. Wondering when it was made, likely either in 1977 or 1965. Any help would be appreciated.

Should be a '65. Does it have the old style louvered side windows?

I will check tomorrow, rainy now and too far to the shed.

No louvered windows except one on the front.
If it is a 65 then I was working in Ft. Lupton shortly thereafter. Taught HS science there from 67-69. Remember the plant on the north side of town.
Currently making a rolling stand to lower the camper onto so it can be moved around in the shop and also be more stabile than jacks while working in it.

That's strange. Unless that factory was using different windows earlier than the others it should have the Hehr louvered windows. I wonder of they have been replaced already.

I asked Bryan Wheat at Alaskan about my campers age.  He said 2nd and 3rd numbers indicate year built, so yours would be a 1972.
