VIN vs Data Plate
I'm considering buying a '67 Tempest Custom. But since I'm relatively new to Pontiacs, I have what may be a dumb question about the body number (from the firewall data plate) and the VIN sequence number from the door-jamb plate.
Logic would tell me that the sequence numbers should match. But in this case, they don't: the data plate shows "01894", and the VIN (and title) show "19489". Everything else matches (year, body style, plant code etc), and the plates/rivits definitely look factory original.
Is this something to be concerned about?
thanks
