hello everyone, I am trying to find out how can you decode a vin number. i have a 1980 datsun 280zx first 6 is hgs130 which tells me H- L28E G- 2+2 s130 car model then rest is serial number which has 6 numbers. I have found all that info. Mine was manufactured between 8/79 - 6/80 So, vin is only 12 numbers and no where can I find anything about the vehicle as color code, transmission, etc. My dad works on classic mustangs so he can send in for what's called a Marti report and tells you that your vehicle is x or x with this trim color etc. that's what I am looking for. Can anyone help me out?
I have the paint code information and stuff. I didn't know if there was a report that showed all the stuff like the marti report out there or not. I have ran the vin on carfax and got all info that you are able to find out (maintenance, wrecks, title, inspection and stuff). It just doesn't show like this car is #1 of 1500 with this paint and trim.
