Help needed identifying partial VIN
I have a 1965 dated M21 and the partial VIN I found on it is 5Z118585. Does anyone know what type of car that is with the 'Z' in the partial VIN?

That is for a Chevelle built at the Freemont plant.

Re: Help needed identifying partial VIN
Thanks. If anyone is a member at Team Chevelle and wants to post the information in case someone has the car it belongs to, go ahead. I just changed the clutch and put the trans back in, but if the car is found it belongs to, I'll pull it back out if the owner wants it.

Re: Help needed identifying partial VIN
Could be a GTO also... couldn't it? Jeff was there another number in front of the 5? 1 would be for Chevrolet and a 2 would be for Pontiac... or did they start that later?

Re: Help needed identifying partial VIN
1= Chevy
2= Pontiac 3=Olds 4=Buick This coding started in the 1968 model year V.I.N.'s If the trans has a 429 tail housing(driver side speedo) could be Pontiac... Hope this helps... Crash
