Henry,

The system is telling me it needs 17 characters and this value is only 11.
Is that the response you are getting too?

Steve,

I believe they didn’t have 17 digit VIN’s in 1967.

Thx,

I just talked to my pal who has a 1969 Firebird and the Vin is 11 or 12 digits, definitely not 17.
His Corvette from 1973 has a VIN that is 12 digits.

Before 1981, the VIN format was not standardized and varied by manufacturer according to what I could find.

It looks like the 17 byte VIN came on the scene in 1981 because this is what I found.
The 10th character in the 17-character VIN represents the vehicle model-year.
This standard applies to vehicles built in or after 1981.

Note: VINs do not include the letters I (i), O (o), Q (q), U (u) or Z (z), or the number 0, so that they will not be confused with similar-looking numbers/letters.

Steve,

Does that mean Carfax doesn’t work on 11 digit VIN’s?

Thanks,

Henry

It is my understanding, carfax will only do cars from 1981 or newer.

As Chris stated, I think 1981 is the cut off year.
I tried to pull a report on my 1980 Z/28 since I still have the title and it wouldn't pull it.
That VIN is 1P87LAL548731 and since it is only 13 characters the system defaults to needing 17.

Got it guys, thanks for checking!
