Re: [Chrysler300] '62 Chrysler VIN question



I'm thinking the "84" that is normally stamped in, instead of embossed on the VIN tag with raised digits, was somehow overlooked or obscured (paint? rust?) 
That might explain the VIN starting with "23" instead of "8423"
Of course, this is all assuming that it is a full-sized Chrysler.

Something haywire here!
Are you sure the VIN is copied correctly??

According to my '62 books;

2....Plymouth 6 cyl chassis.
......Chrysler should be an 8
3....Fury
......A 300 should be a 4
1....1961
.......1962 should be a 2
2.....Dodge plant, Detroit
.......Again, Chrysler should be a 3 for Jefferson ave but if it's a "sport" 
I suppose it could have been built in Newark (6) or LA (5)

If it was a 300 vin should read 8423+1xxxxx
If a Newport 2nd digit would be a 5, NY'er a 7

I think you have transposed the last 2 digits, imagine that!!
