Your car was sold in WA (dealer 869) and the engine number was JP111509 - I am sure Dave will confirm this in due course.

Thanks Bazza - I was racking my brains trying to work out what the round "thingies" shown where the battery used to be, then it occurred to me they might be horns...

Hi Tinkers

 

That VIN appears on the disc as a GTR completed in Brisbane on 23/5/73 and sold by Savell Bros, Forest Rd. Hurstville NSW the following month. The original engine number was JL340483. Tangerine with Doeskin and Chestnut trim. The Chassis and Body numbers accord with the production date.

 

Cheers

Hi Deno

 

Those 2 numbers line up well. The Body Number on the Body Identificatio plate does not have to match any other number. The stamped Chassis Number has to match the Chassis Number that appears on the ADR compliance plate.

 

Do you have the VIN and ADR tags? That will tell the whole story.

 

From what you have provided, it appears to be a Burnished Bronze Metallic GTR with Sandalwood trim built early Feb 1971 in Adelaide.

 

Cheers

Hi Guys,

 

I was hoping you can help identify the following plates, sorry no VIN:

 

Body Identification Plate

 

Model LC 82911

Body No. 1873-A

Trim: 1800-40 V

Paint: 568-12205

 

Compliance Plate

 

09/70 build

LC17593A

Number scratched on back - 9545 (with X in top right corner)

 

Engine No. 3100x22060

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

Cheers

 

David B

Hi Dermott23

 

Having the digits '9545' scribed onto the reverse of the ADR tag - indicates that the VIN of the vehicle in question would be 82911CL159545. This being the case, the vehicle would be an XU-1 completed in Adelaide on 14/9/70. The selling dealer code is 0004 which is taken to mean that the car was used internally by GMH Adelaide or exported. In either case it is extremely unusual for an engine number to be recorded, however the engine number recorded is 310022195. This is not the engine number that you have provided (3100X22060) but it is within the range of numbers being fitted to vehicles during that period. It could be a case of an input error at that time. The Chassis Number and Body Number accord with the completion date, the colour is Rally Red and the trim is black vinyl. If you PM me with your email address, I can send you a screen shot of the VIN disk entry.

 

Cheers

 

Bazza
