VIN's
I think that sportabout was in Knoxville and just sold on ebay.
I bid on it and then had an emergency and was away from ebay for a couple of
days and lost it. Do you have any pics on yours?

No, I probably have the information here
somewhere on the buyer, but all he did was turn it for same price he bought
it from me for. Ironically, I had this car advertised for months, just like
this little 74 Sportabout (which I have been trying to sell for three years
now for $600) but had the 304 wagon for sale for months, heavily advertised
nationally. Hope it found a good home, was a solid little car, only problem
I had with it was is was putt putty when first starting up, and until it got
to operating temp, was sluggish, homeless people with shopping carts were
faster.

Very common 000 VIN's in 1973. Here is a
copy of a 73 Hornet Sportabout Texas title for instance I sold last year
for $975. Facroty 304V8, AT, nicly optioned, offered it here on Bart's
list and other places for months and no bites, so finally simply shoved
it on ebait. Sadly the fellow who bought it only wanted to custom it and
took it to Dallas, where he promptly changed plans when somethign else
caught his eye and it was back up on ebay...a month later for well,
$975, where it sold last day and is now in Tennessee.
Note the VIN of A3A087H009581; this was a
September 1972 built car, very early 1973 production, so sort of neat,
that and it was a factory 304V8 car. The copy of the title you see here
is a copy of the ORIGINAL title also, sold new to Betty there from
Taylor American in Dallas Texas in 1973.....and also worth noting is the
original owner title date off to the left of 09/25/73 also.

Re: CANADIANCAR
Too simple. There were times AMC went into the 200,000s and
300000s.
This is as simple as it gets:
Serial# begins with a 0-6, it's
Kenosha-built
7-9, it's from Brampton.
(yes, the 0 versions do exist)

Canadian AMCs started with production number 700001. I don't
believe
Bill has a shop manual, but for anyone who has a shop
manual (TSM) for
almost all years before 1981, inside the very
front pages where it describes
how to figure out your VIN and
door tag, it will have a blurb that
100001-699,999 is Kenosha
built, while 700,001 thru 1,000,000 is Brampton
built. I have
enclosed the second page from a 1970 TSM here, look in middle
row. Hope that helps,
