VIN Question
I should know this but I don't.
If my VIN ends in 0301, is 0302 a ZR1 or could it be a a non Z? Thanks |

Re: VIN Question
If the VIN ends in 0302 and all of the other positions with the exception of the check digit are the same, it would indeed be the ZR-1 that came off the assembly line after yours.

Re: VIN Question
Great! That makes it easier.
It would be cool to find 1991 VIN 0300, 0301 (mine) and 0302 and line them up for a picture. Thanks |

Re: VIN Question
They did not and do not come off the line in numerical order.
The VIN number is assigned when an order is received at the factory. |

Re: VIN Question
Quick course on ZR-1 VIN's:
Here is a typical VIN (1990 #0004): 1G1YZ23J6L5800004 The fifth digit (Z) is the Carline Z = ZR-1 The 8th digit is the Engine Code J = LT5 The 9th digit is a Check Sum to verify there are no errors. The 10th digit (L) indicates the model year L-1990, M-1991, N-1992, P-1993, R-1994, S-1995 The 12th digit (8) is the production Series 8 = ZR-1 Digits 13-17 is the Production Number Jim

I've never seen an unusual difference in build dates that stood out when I was paying fairly close attention to a few builds. I did a sequence I believe of most years and the builds generally happened in smaller than would have been expected lots. Last edited by WVZR-1; 05-23-2013 at 08:33 PM. |

Re: VIN Question
So generally speaking, they were built in order, but it was
possible for them to be completed a bit out of order for various reasons. Is that a fair statement? Thanks |
