I can't find it in there. Hi Welmoedj, The VIN list is based on several incomplete sources of information and is compiled and enhanced over time as additional infomration becomes available. The most valuable source of info is owners and enthusiasts finding cars and tracking the VIN numbers for logging. A missing VIN in the database doesn't imply anything other than that VIN hasn't been logged yet. The primary sources of information for the VIN list are: Owners and enthusiasts finding VINs and logging them The original DMC warranty cards The original MC sales records Other DMC records of various kinds (like shipping manifests) Carfax and similar searches None of these sources are in themselves complete but by continuing to collect data the VIN list should steadily get better and more complete. I have been negligent in publishing an updated VIN list and there has meen substantial updates since the last posted list. If I get a little time I'll compile a new version and post it for folks to enjoy.
