VN SS
Hi Everyone.

I'm having trouble decoding my VIN on a 1990 VN I believe to be SS. The tags have been stolen so I'm trying to determine what I can from VIN. I found the thread that had a listing and breakdown on commodore VIN numbers etc. As follows.

VN COMMODORE

6H8VNK19HJL - V6 SEDAN
6H8VNK35HJL - V6 WAGON
6H8VNK19UKL - V8 SEDAN
6H8VNK35UKL - V8 WAGON
6H8VNL19HJL - V6 SEDAN BERLINA
6H8VNL35HJL - V6 WAGON BERLINA
6H8VNL19UKL - V8 SEDAN BERLINA
6H8VNL35UKL - V8 WAGON BERLINA
6H8VNX19HJL - V6 SEDAN CALAIS
6H8VNX19UKL - V8 SEDAN CALAIS

But I don't see mention of 6H8VNK19ULL.

I READ somewhere else the U equals V8 with 1 of the Ls being Adelaide manufacture. Can anyone confirm or help?

Thankyou

Yes, U indicates the 5000i HEC 5L injected motor. This means your "K" is a SS model. L= 1990 model, L=Elizabeth plant.

Just curious.
Can the vehicle even be registered with missing tags?
What difficulty will you have if you later decide to sell a vehicle with missing tags?
Since the VIN number is on the stolen tag, which can’t be replaced, how is it all handled by the NEVDIS database (whose purpose is to stop vehicle rebirths across Australia)?
What does your insurance say on the matter?
Is it better to make a claim and have them write off the car (for a fair price)?
