That is correct; the first production car out of the factory was Vin 500.

On Ebay, they have listed the 153rd car off the line, but do not list the vin #. I was under the impression that the Crawford Museum in Cleveland had the first D off the line in their collection. Would that make this car vin# 653? Thanks in advance for clearing this up for me. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/aw-cgi/ebayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=399552176&r=0&t=0 Mattman [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
