help with vin #

If that's the case then Michigan may have made a mistake when they issued one. where else on this 69 would a complete vin # be. core support, fender tag. where else would the 7 th digit be on that car.

Not 100% sure, rad support, under the package tray maybe?

Bruce, since you live in Michigan, could you get me a number of someone in DMV I could call to see what to do about this


  • Department of State Information Center toll-free number: (888 SOS-MICH; (888 767-6424; Staffed Monday through Friday 8:30 A.M. to 5:00 P.M.

IF this doesn't match. does Michigan physically check cars coming in the state to see if vin #'s match.

No, when I drug mine home from Indiana they just transferred the title. Like I said, I don't "think" Ga would have had one.

EDIT: They may with just a Bill of Sale, I dunno.


also If I buy this car and he signs the title over to me and I have a paper from Ky. we need to get notarized for the application for title along with a bill of sale, I should be good to go shouldn't I. at least I will prove I am the new owner and then I could work on the mistake down here on the title. what do ya think.

Like I suggested, call your DMV and ask.

There may not be a problem here. He is going to send me a pic of the dash tag today. It may match. Ga. may not have issued a title and Mich. could have issued a title from a Bill of sale. I will see later today.

I'll bet dollars to donuts the bill of sale, if it had the VIN on it could have been written down wrong OR they just missed it at the SOS office when he applied for the title. Not uncommon for that to happen.

They have my car listed as a 4 door on the title, that's how it was listed on the Indiana title. I haven't had it changed yet.

I have to either take the car to the SOS office so they can come out and look at it, or have the State Popo come out and verify it.
