1BAD2K Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Yes, you can definitely tell what the car was by the numbers. You cant run a carfax on it though. Lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hot rod truck Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Read this: http://www.ehow.com/how_7324907_identify-real-1969-ss-chevelle.html GM back at this time did not identify SS cars through the VIN. Hopefully the info will help identify it as an SS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blown 346 Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 You have to use the vin and the tag on the firewall to decode it with what options, where it was built, the week, month and day. Etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catdaddy300 Posted December 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 That's what we thought was the case thanks for the help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blown 346 Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 If you can, look under the back seat itself, alot of times there is a build sheet there unless someone already grabbed it. Same goes for another build sheet mounted on top of the gas tank. If you can find either, the value of that car just went up by 20% or more. I would remove both and keep them somewhere safe.
