Hi,
Dunno how all this started but one hour later, part of the rear trunk had no more paint! Found some of that orange stuff too... actually I now have a hole in the rear trunk floor near the drivers side taillight. About the size of a coin was taken out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) Anyway, i discovered in the rear trunk floor (it was partly covered by seam sealer and paint) a stamped number 2219005. What is it??? Part of the VIN (if it is it's not the numbers i have on my car). TIA Marc-André |

QUOTE a stamped number 2219005. What is it??? Ahhh grasshoppa... Its the chassis number and is actually a code. It should be the identical number as the upper number on your chassis plate, affixed to the front drivers door jamb. If its not the same, your car is actually two or more cars melded together. Decoded it says: "This chassis started fabrication on Monday of the 22nd week [calendar week from January 1] of the year [calendar year your car was made, from the rear door jamb sticker]. It was constructed in Osnabruek and was the 5th chassis which was begun that day. A monday morning car...probably the best there is...probably started down the line at 9:14 am... |
