What's your VIN?

[gav240z]

Hi Everyone,

Had someone email me about his early Zed last night. Was interested to know how many other low vin numbers were out there. I said I wasn't sure and that www.wazcars.com had a registry for Aus and NZ cars, however since many people still don't know about that website, I thought it would be fun to see who owns the lowest vin number and see if we can get an idea of how many first gen 240z's are still flying around our roads.

 

260z or 2+2 owners - Feel free to post your numbers too. Maybe we can even have a draw and the car in each category with the lowest VIN wins a prize? (not sure what to giveaway just yet though)

 

We could categorise by

 

240z - First Gen

240z - Second Gen

260z - First Gen

260z - Second Gen

260z 2+2 - First Gen

260z 2+2 - Second Gen

 

280zx - First Gen

280zx - Second Gen

 

So post your numbers and if possible include other relevant details (if known).

Here is the template (suggestions welcome)
