65 GT Convertible VIN question
I have a 65 GT convertible. The vin is 5F 08A 75277A. What does the A
at the end indicate, air or the A engine maybe? I thought the last 6 of the vin were the consecutive unit number that began with 100001, so why is there an A at the end? |

65 GT Convertible VIN question
You don't mention where this number appears, most probably a screw up on the
line or some other number overstamped. check the door tag, title and both fender stampings to see if they all have the "A" on the end .Has the Door tag been replaced? how about in the cars history has the inner fender been replaced? Some times in rust or crash repair a shop may restamp the number incorrectly. Does the vin stamping on the fender have the little star marks at the front and rear of the stamping? The 5th digit "A" is for the engine code. in 25 years in the Mustang bizz I've seen overstamps, miss stamp, and missing digits often. However, not in all places is the screw up repeated. Except on several of the 70 boss cars the 5th digit was omitted in all locations except the windshield tag. hope this helps |
