Identifying the Manufacturer’s Code and Serial Number of your Vehicle

Before 1976, the vehicle’s serial number was placed under the seat of the driver, on the skirt, of the fender however it is still difficult for you to work out the manufacturing year exactly with this number. After 1976, and upto the year 1993, the serial number used to be placed beneath the side dash board of the passenger. To determine the manufacturing year of these carts, you can check the manufacture’s code specified in no definite order. Some of the actual cart examples include: 79J01-188254, 78O516-155671 and 79A12-161603.
