Title: Lowest 67 VIN?
Post by: lakeholme on March 10, 2008, 01:55:30 AM

What's the lowest 67 VIN in the CRG database?

A friend ran across this car in Chicago and wondered if anyone know anything about it.

One car after that, 7N100013.

Would you happen to have a trim tag picture for that car? :)

Thanks!

Sorry, no trim tag.  (My friend travels a lot in business' loves classic cars,  and I've begged him to carry a camera...) The car is with a dealer. He gave me thier website address,  and I got the VIN off of it (below).  They did not list a tag and they are alluding to this be an "auto show car".  They only show exterior pics --including ones with a rear spoiler.  I've seen pictures of the 67 #6 a few years ago and it said this guy was the original owner from CA.  I told my friend it was certainly interesting but to be cautious. about the provenance stories  He would love to know what you think...

They didn't - someone added a '69 spoiler somewhere along the line of previous owners.

That car is advertised in nat'l car rag, like Aiuto Exchange. I think I remember it being a RS convertible. It's on the cover.

Yes, beyond the low VIN, the car seems a bit of a "mutt"...

OK, I looked again. It's in AutaBuy Feb. issue. It is a red RS coupe just like the numbers say. My memory is off, working too much lately. The same issue also has a '64 Pontiac Banshee , if you have a million and a half.

If I remember right, there is no cowl tag for this car.
