HERES MY FENDER TAG AND VIN#

I just bought this Sport Satelite, It has 25,200 original miles on it. It really needed a good home. So as Restoration begins, I would appreciate any help.....

I scanned the fender tag for you to see, it reads:

64 1
6 1 7 2
95 8 48 P6N JJ1 B B
RP23 62 3 44 426 317753


the vin is: RP23H8G226767


I have the certicard also - see the scanned picture


I would like to know what the JJ1 color code is, and what does the 'B' stamped thrugh the fender tag means?

And the certicard has the VIN but the original owners name has been removed, and on the bottom, it says HARRISBURG ILL. - does this mean the original selling dealer was in Harrisburg or the original owner lived there?

I will post pictures soon and the build sequence numbers from the engine. I just got the engine/trans out, and the trans has the VIN on it, but the engine does not appear to have a VIN anywhere. The engine has a casting date of 6-9-67.

I plan to try and locate previous owners, and I know the names of at least two.

Brian W Burgess
of Pomona CA, he owned it until may 19th 1988, when it was impounded in Santa Maria CA.

Buicao A Jaime
of Claremont CA, this person may have owned it sometime before 1988. ????



This Super Sweet car really needs to know about its past....Please help if you can.

Many many thanks.

I could not figure out how to send more than one picture......

.....

JJ1 = Medium gold metallic (nice!)

The "B" is an inspector's stamp

Sounds like an awesome car. Gold w/black & gold interior.
383 4bb, 4-speed & F70-14 red lines, too!! B'cast sheet??

Looks like the last name is "PEEPLES" & the zip code was peeled also. Can you see a partial first name?
Harrisburg, ILL would be the original owner's address, YAHOO "people search" shows 5 listings for "PEEPLES in Harrisburg, IL"?
Used to be more info available? There should be some other free info sites?

Here's my brother's '68 GTX convertible: "J" paint code - "ember gold metallic".

Has it deteriorated enough to resto at 26k? Bummer.

With 3000 miles on the '88 impound report, I'd guess 125K at this point in time.

I Have been very busy, but I haven't found a broadcast sheet yet. This car did not come to me with the original front seats, so not chance of finding it there, I guess there could be one somewhere else, but I haven't checked.

That's your brothers car? LOVE the Spyder rims. My favorite.

Seems likes he runs different rims/hubcaps on the car at times?
