Hi

can't decode my VIN so far, maybe you can help me? at least to confirm that this short vin is for the mopar's for Canadian market, I'll continue to search there, in MOPAR historical club (factory one) could not help

The vin number is 88160121

Overseas export, some countries required at least part of the new car to be assembled in their country, so the incomplete cars had partial VINs like this one.

It would have started life in Hamtramck, MI before being sent overseas to be completed.

Are there any other tags on the inner fenders?

Nope, I would love to have it but no.. Looks like dead end again :)
 
What year, make and model is the car in question?

Listen to this guy.
He knows a lot about the idiosyncracies and facts about these cars and how they were built etc.
BTW, cars sent to Canada or built in Canada had regular V.I.N. numbers same as the ones sold in the U.S.
Mexican built cars (AutoMex) had their own way of assigning V.I.N.s, I have seen a few.
