Hi guys, ive found what looks like to be an lc xu1. Can anyone tell me who could id this car. The ID plates have never been off, the vin plate matches the chassis number stamped.

Build date is 8/70
model - 82911
Body - N809124B
Trim - 1815 40V
Paint - 568 12573

82911CH168407

The car has had a hard life, needs lots of work to get rid of rust etc but all in all its rebuildable.

Big chance, the VIN is in the middle of the first run of Xu1s from Bris. HG350 will know. She is busy this weekend so be patient.

Upon more research your car has the same METSBACFR code as the XU1s in close build proximity which indicates it has a 186 engine Good News. Can't make much sence of the rest of the code will keep researching. Sunburst

What does the 'N' at the beginning of the body number mean - shouldn't it be 'LC...'?
