Serial Number Or Vin Questions

Re: VIN Numbers

To make it a bit safer and encourage more participation, we do not need your entire VIN, just the serial. if you include details about your jeep (color, options, ren-1 etc) they will be recorded as well. it is especially important for those of you who have an accurate build date to let us know. if you do not want to post, you can email the info to one of us.

as I mentioned above, this started out as focused on the 69-71 v6 models, but getting the info for all years will provide a better picture.

It all sounds good to me. You kind of lost me when you started talking about "setting up a wiki" My first thought was what did burying a pig and tropical drinks have to do with jeeps:? Just kidding as I am not up on a lot of this internet stuff. I have a some space on my internet server to store things if we need it. Just let me know what you want me to do.
Also you might let me know if you know of any higher VIN's then the last one on my list. Of course you know who that one belongs to.

 

Re: VIN Numbers

Re: VIN Numbers

Re: VIN Numbers

tuxedo park

mark III 1962 -1963
mark IV 1964 - 1967

1957 tuxedo does not compute.

 

Re: VIN Numbers

not sure its on the title as such, but im not going for 100% on any of them. That one inpeticular is title as a 63'.

57548-102283 this one is just a vin that Duke54 hooked me up with, he might chime in with some more info. It should be a standard 55-59'.

 

Re: VIN Numbers

I'v got an extra tub that, when I looked closely, had a VIN plate on the firewall in the upper left corner. (beneath the undercoating someone put on the outside of the firewall.) I believe when I bought it in the 1980's, the seller told me it was a 1963. I could be wrong about that. From reading the above posts in this thread, it looks like it might be earlier than that. This is the first chance I came across to verify it. Since I bought only body parts, I didn't get a title. The VIN is 57548 33858. Thanks.

 

VIN identification

I posted this the other day in the sticky section but got no response. Perhaps that was the wrong place to post it. So here it is:

Re: VIN Numbers

wyomike, the 69 cj5 last four digits 0759 is indeed a canadian built. i own it. says it on the plate and the first half of the model number indicates it.

so we have any idea of the months on any of the 69's. aka "the lost model year" if you look in the parts manuals...

it appears as if mine may be very early 69 since the fenders do not have the indents for reflectors and the parking lights are the small dia.

reasonably sure the fenders and grill are original.

BTW ... thanks for doing that list. it's great.

 

Re: VIN Numbers

It sure looks like it. What's the significance of the 5754? As opposed to 8305 for CJ5. The first 8 might be a "B", which I think means a 4 cylinder engine. Or am I all wet? :?

Re: VIN Numbers

Serial Number: 57548 127334

 

Re: VIN Numbers

So mine's a CJ5 earlier than 62. Interesting.

Re: VIN Numbers

I would place 57548 33858 as solidly a 1956 cj5
