If you look at the link I posted it does in fact list some of those options by year but as I pointed out it does not seem to work at all for my Jeep. I have seen people claim they can tell you what options your Jeep had using just the VIN The CJ3B page is where the earliest month of manufacture information comes from.Ĭlick to expand.Zoomer I understand how people know what years the windshields changed, ect - that is not what I am talking about at all. I have never found an online VIN decoder or document that can provide the information this forum can provide. We've also accumulated month of manufacture estimates that aren't documented by Willys/Kaiser/AMC. As I said, none of this is indicated in the VIN. Through experience, this group knows when the windshields changed, or when the fuel tank moved to the back, or when there were no front reflectors, hood mounted reflectors or fender mounted marker lights. There were very few "options" back then, and they were not documented in the VIN, only some in the paint and trim tag. Like you said, it probably sat on a sales lot or at some time the title got an error in it.Ī lot of research is how the people here can provide some of this info. It wasn't uncommon back then to title a vehicle as the year it was purchased, that doesn't make it a different model year vehicle. You have a 10 digit VIN and what I showed you is all the information contained in the VIN, there is no more. Nothing else like color, interior, windshield configuration or anything else. About the only additional information provided by the additional digits is right/left hand drive or F4/V6. It is also woefully incomplete regarding the starting and ending serial numbers for each model. That "decoder" you linked does not recognize the fact that Jeep VINs of this era can consist of 10, 11 or 13 digits. The CJ3B page is where the earliest month of manufacture information comes from.
