X 62994 should be a commercial plate.

Most Livery plates start with Z

Too bad records do not exist anymore to trace the original owner of X 62 994 or the previous owner or company might be found of the car prior to its modification.
I am told California only keeps DMV paperwork for 10 years.


7 years

there is not a specific "dealer" associated with 81100

it's a company car arraigned/managed/based out of the Lynch Rd. assembly plant
by comparison:
15 81101 would be associated with a company car arraigned/managed/based out of Chrysler Corp. Central Operations 341 Massachusetts Ave. Highland Park, MI

what kind of car is it? can you share a copy of the IBM card?


Do you know what dealer code 82040 is? This is another Region 15 car that also is marked as Export. A 1960 Chrysler 300F.

Thanks. the car is in Sweden now but was bought in the US. It doesn't have export tags on it so I suspect an American overseas bought it or it was sent there for press use as it's a very early car that was built before the official introduction. It has a code 629 on the build card that we don't know what it means.
