My 1970 with a california re-assigned ID number is ready to go back on the road after nearly 5 years of restoration. When I bought the car it had a California re-assigned ID number because of a falsified VIN. About 10 years ago there was an investigation by a Fresno police officer that used a Fry's method of recovering the real VIN. His investigation was almost successful, he identified and recovered NINE out of TEN digits. So the car is one of 10 possible.
If the group can help by supplying any of the missing known numbers that would greatly enhance the chance of restoring the true ID number of my vechicle by process of elimination> This is the partial number: 4702905_48. Anybody that has that third digit could respond. If I get lucky, REALLY lucky, I'll have 9 responses. Any help is appreciated. |

IIRC, we could say, that your car was built on March 18, 1970
this would reduce the possible VIN range somewhere in the area 04700 ~ 05900 (apporx. - not in detail) so, Andy might be right, that 90 was simply swithcet to 09 your VIN should beginn with 470290xxxx - possibly 4702905_48 |
