What you want to do, i guess, is order numerically by the digits preceeding the first hyphen?
like ...
order by ... to_number(substr(NYS_MODEL,1,instr(NYS_MODEL,'-')-1))
Haven't tested it, but you get the picture.

And the need to perform such manipulations should send up a very large red flag telling you that your database is not designed correctly.

actually I didn't notice
only need to
order by M.NYS_MODEL
because AND M.MFG = 'ATCCCC'
will stay the same anyways........
