...oh never mind. I see that the numerical portion of the serial number runs consecutively regardless of make or model. Hmmm, how do you find out how many of a particular model were built?
Nice! So it is:
L - Long wheel base
9 - Premium V8
E - Convertible
5 - 1965
9 - Canada
171838 - 71,838th Unit Built

This is really strange. I've been trying to decode the VIN on my car but am having no luck. Maybe someone out there can figure out where to decode this. The car is a 1965 Canadian Plymouth Valiant Signet 273 V8 Convertible. In the states this car would have been called a Dart GT.

Anyone know where to send chrome trim/bumpers etc to get straightened and re chromed? I remember seeing a shop once on overhaulin who did some incredible stuff. Mine needs a little help after the recent hit and run, and 48 years of daily driving.

Looking for a replacement fender after a hit and run. In Canada, this car was called a Plymouth Valiant. However, in the States, it shared fenders with the Dodge Dart, and Dart GT.
