Hes right about the lack of information for the Canadian cars. You might have better luck if you post it on www.chevytalk.org in the appropriate forum. There seems to be a fair number of non-Americans there and you will also double your chances of getting a response. Greg 54hdt

As we had a lot of CKD building in here I had the same problem with my 51 Fleetline: the door jamb number related to the body and color and body series number: 51 2152 433. Wasn´t your car registered with the engine #? It seems to me that the foreign built chevies had no VIN as we now know it. My papers have the engine # and as the original 216 is long gone I had a friend engrave the numbers in my chassis, just by the driver´s side upper wishbone, and had some plates made with the original #JAM 472388. Try to see the number as a series of identifications for a export body: They may not have known at the time of shipment the future VIN to be given to that specific auto.
