Re: Dealer code, Waye say's not available ? You may want to call Wayne back and ask if there are two or more lines for your VIN number. Several times in my research I ran across cars that had mulitple lines for the same VIN in the microfilm. Typically the car was sold or sent to one dealer and then redirected to another dealer. As Duane has explained the car may have been temporarily held at a location or may have changed dealers and be moved. This was common the the 79 code cars. I do believe the 79 001 was a location in NY where cars were taken to be loaded on a ship. The cars I have seen with this number have gone either to the Caribean, Hawaii, Europe or other international locations. I have a lot more dealer codes than are shown on the site. I went to Sloan last year and picked up another 800-1000 codes that I need to get into the codes. Sloan has all the invoices for 1973. I got a lot of new numbers and addresses and some really intersted information on zone 16. Mark
