{FORGED?} Re: Can anyone decode this?



Jamie,
according to the 68 tech manual
That 68 javelin vin decodes like this;
A= American motors
8= 1968
c= floor shift auto trans
7= series(javelin)
9= body type(two door hardtop)
5= group(javelin)
m= 290 V8,2V
312024= sequential serial number(100,001-699,999=kenosha built)

door tag decodes as such
body # denotes body serial number and plant where body was manufactured
model#6879-5 =javelin series two door hard top(-7 would be sst option)
trim#838j = ?
paint#48a = tahiti turquoise metallic

As far as the 800 asking price goes it would all depend on how repairable the car is or what quality of parts still remain with the car. If the back half is as badly rotted as most 68's are I would say its not worth what they asking.(of course that is just my opinion)

It has major front end damage and they are trying to sell it for $800. Is a wrecked Javelin worth that? here is the vin and door tag info.
