jettalover ◊ 2022-04-20 01:00	How could this Regal have the same body code as a '81 Impala: A?

dhill_cb7 ◊ 2022-04-20 22:45	@jetta what do you mean the same body code?
jettalover ◊ 2022-04-20 23:24	I thought on GM cars the 4th position was the body code. This time it was the 5th.
dhill_cb7 ◊ 2022-04-21 00:10	Depends on the year I believe. I have 1960-2020 vin cards on a pdf saved to my computer. I failed to do this for Massive PDF that was hosted for all makes and models and somehow the website took it down.
