VIN# needs 17 characters, you posted 16 - give me the rest and I will check it out for you. The invoice that I will see will show estimated Delivery date.

Check what?!?

You ordered the vehicle from the dealership, and probably signed paperwork at a dealership, and definitely payed money or agreed to finance money going to the dealership.

Wouldn't it then be implied that any questions you have could be asked to the dealership?

Villain

P.S. Regardless, was this what you were looking for?

A word of advice - if you don't plan on running a front license plate, then tell the dealer to leave the damn thing off. The screws are better engineered on it than an F-1. They will strip if you try to remove them.

How do I even get my VIN #? My dad ordered my SS/SC in the beginning of February, and I haven't heard a thing about it.

I ordered in Sept 2004 and I just got my VIN today. It's probably going to be a while. Getting the VIN is one of the final stages in the order.

It's not really all that interesting in this age of Computer Technology when you type in numbers and get a corresponding file in the network of the place that builds the car which by law has to keep track of every car sold so if there is a recal they can send out the appropriate mailers..


Sorry I don't share your Awe

Illinois has that stupid law where you have to have the front and rear license plate, which sucks ass cause they look so much better with out em. I know people over here w/o the fronts on, and dont get in any trouble, but my dumb luck I would the first day.

We're lucky here. Cincinnati (ohio) law says you have to have a front and rear plate, but with Indiana and Kentucky (both only have rear) so close you can get away with only having a rear plate. The only priblem is when my friends and I take trips we have to put the front plate on
