How do you find the manufacture date of a vehicle with the VIN number?

That depends on the make of the vehicle.
Most, if not all, car makers include a "model year" in the Vin.
It should be noted that the actual date of manufacture might not be the same as the "model year". A vehicle might be made in in the last few weeks/months of one year, but be made to the specification for the following year. (IE the car could be made in December 2006 to the spec for 2007, so it's a "2007" car made in 2006.)
Typically the model year is indicated by one or more letter/number in the vin
For example a (imaginary) Vauxhall Vin number might read:
W0L0TGF35YG123456
W0L=Vauxhall/Opel.
0=Nothing
T=Astra
G=Mark 4
F35=Van
Y=2001 Model year.
G=Made at "factory G" (Gliwice in Poland, as it happens!)
123456= Unique serial number.
The location of the "date code" may be an industry standard, but the nature of the code is up to the maker, so "Y" is 2001 for Vauxhall only.
