Automan2164 Posted March 20, 2011 Posted March 20, 2011 Bo, you know you have the lowest serial number of the '86's? Rob L.
shelbyluvv Posted March 20, 2011 Author Posted March 20, 2011 I do. I have been asking everyone who has an 86 for their last six numbers so I can see if she is the first of her kind. So far the closest is 003750. Sadly the door sticker is faded and I can't see the build date. But, everything I have taken off has had a tag or sticker that says 4/85. That is the reason I went away from the 4 door conversion on this truck. Also why I am making everything for the Magnum swap a bolt in affair. Once I saw the VIN I thought she might be an extremely early truck. The options in it were weird too. 2.5, 4X4, AX-5, A/C, no power steering, black on black, and chrome bumpers. All on a base truck?
shelbyluvv Posted July 20, 2011 Author Posted July 20, 2011 I finally manned up and peeled the door sticker off the truck. Luckily for me it was lifting right under the date stamp. I spent the better part of 15 minutes with a magnifying glass and different types of flash lights to figure out the build date. It was clear as a bell once I got it angled just right. She was built 9/85 and was put into service October 10, 1985. The build date corresponds to the in service date. Now if I could only get the day it was made I would be a happy man!
