It is easily done, but you won't be able to do it yourself. That is a good thing, or there would be make dodgy stuff harder to pick!

As I said, it isn’t online and it’s best to stay that way.

I shouldn’t post the tags on the forum, I am only looking to purchase the car , I’m right with everything else, it all checks out , I’m just trying to match the body number manufacture date to the actual build date on the adr tag , I know the numbers are in series , this body number seems like it could be a little early for for the build date . The car is 8/76 , the body number is 509…..m, most numbers for that month production are 53……m or 54…..m

Walk away from it. Unless it's cheap and you don't care if it's a bitza. 8/76 Holden or Torana or Bedford or Chevrolet from Dandenong will have PSN's in the J53 range. J54 is September. J509 is the second half of December 1975 which should be a really low chassis number car.

 

So either the VIN and BODY tags don't belong to the ADR plate or the ADR plate doesn't belong to the body, or possibly both. Does the chassis number on the ADR tag match the chassis rail on the car?

Thankyou for the info guys just wanted to confirm my thoughts , yes the body tag / adr matches the chassis no , the car also has the seatbelt child seat bolt making it after 6 /76

If you are convinced the body is 6/76 on and the chassis number is right for the ADR tags then it looks like the other two tags are off another car, which is a shame. Did you get all number off the VIN and BODY tags? If it's a December car it might be one of the Press Fleet cars. Six of those had PSN's starting with J509 and there wasn't that many made in that range.
