Hi Matt!
Just when I thought this thread might starve, then you come arround throwing in 12 cars WITH their VIN`s…what shall I say?
THAT IS AWESOME, BIG THANKS to both YOU AND YOUR FRIEND JOE !!!
In short: we have 10 totally new cars and 1 new VIN to the already known cars.
So I`ll work through your 12 cars in the order of mentioning:
1. RL21H61233725 => car including VIN was already on my list (#2)
2. RL21H67298839 => car was already on my list (#21 „unknown12“), but thanks to you I can tie down a VIN to it
This car was on ebay in 3/2021 and during that featured by barnfinds.com, but entries were too old, so I could not get more infos/photos.
To my taste, this car has a stunning color-combo and it would be a tough decision to tell if I would prefere the black-on-red one or this most. In doubt, I would take both ;-)
3. RL21H61179108 => BINGO, new car & vin to me! Thus added to my list as #39. Do you by chance have more info on it: int.color / heater or radio-delete / or even fendertag?
Regarding the stated exterior-color „QQ1“, may I hind that „QQ1“ is not a „maroon“, but a dark-red-metallic, which fits to what I see in your picture. Sorry for nitpicking…“know-it-all-mode“ off ;-)
4. RL21H61179112 => and another new car & vin, added to my list as #40. Do you by chance have more info on it: int.color / brakes / heater or radio-delete / or even fendertag ?
5. RL21H61181428 => new car & vin, added as #41. Do you by chance have more info on it: int.color / brakes / heater or radio-delete / or even fendertag ?
6. RL21H61214657 => added as #42.
7. RL21H61221638 => added as #43.
8. RL21H61264992 => added as #44, BUT: could there be a typo in the given VIN#: not „992“, but „299“ instead? Reason I am asking: we have a car with VIN „299“ in the list (#3), that is also from CANADA.
The #3-car (299) is pretty good documented. Do you have more infos on your #44-car (922)?
Regarding ammount of cars originally produced for CANADA: I heard roumors that they only made 10 RL21H6-cars, one of each exterior colour.
But there were 12 colors available for a Belvedere I (other BELV/SAT`s could get up to 17 colors).
Or was intended to say „Each CDA-car hat a different ext-color“? Then 10 CDA-cars might still be correct.
Can anyone breed more flesh to the question, how many „RL21H6“ were produced originally for CANADIAN market or even other EXPORT markets?
9. RL21H61265081 => added as #45, BUT: could this be the same car as #16 „unknown7“ of Ralph from ralphsrapidtransit.com?
His #16-car is now dk-blue-met / red int., but if you look up his restauration-phots, his #16-car was beige/tan „XX1“ originally (to my eyes a shade too dark for WW1-white). His interiour originally also was tan (L1T).
10. RL21H61266886 => added as #46. Any info on what „blue“ exterior-paint: light, light-met. Or dark-met.?
11. RL21H67299813 => added as #47. Any more infos more info on it: trans / colors / brakes / heater or radio-delete / or even fendertag ?
12. RL21H61228226 => added as #48. Any more infos more info on it: brakes / heater or radio-delete / or even fendertag ?
AGAIN, wow and thanks: we jumped up to 48 cars now, which is more than 1/3!
