Re: VIN # and the '78


Thanks, Richard.

OK, this agrees with my theory. These numbers are the beginning numbers
for their dates, but shows the same trend, second grouping of numbers
had 4 digits after the body style change.

Notch and Fastback's second digit it 1
Square is 6
Ghia is 4 (I think)

but the list shows #1 body style production. 

It shows when released from VW plant (I think).

Anyone have later than '71?
