I don't care when the car was built... I am looking for a cross reference between VIN and chassis number, engine number, tranny number, etc. How else to know if the car is built from the same parts it left the factory with :-) I.E. This VIN has this chassis number. This VIN has this engine number or this engine number goes with this chassis and hence this VIN... If anyone knows where to find this info or who might have it, I'd really like to know. DMC-Jo Shop manual and label location. HA! Have a look at your manual and then see if the label is where the manual says it is. -bob
