Year: 1987 Plant: Adelaide Serial Number: 29820 the error in your VIN is the C, it was a G Cheers, Mmmm...got me thinking its a N/A now and it was a turbo. ahh..well, must of got the years wrong told by the seller it was a 1986..Score! Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I have an 86 VL. It was made in Jun/July Cant remember the exact month, i will check tomorrow and edit. But anyway, i have a sticker on inside of the drivers door frame that says something along the lines of 86 VL COMMODORE FIELD TEST Then It has a number and "DO NOT REMOVE" i was wondering if this is on every VL (i've checked on a couple of mates' cars and they dont have it and i was wondering if it was because they werent ever put there, or because they have simply fallen off.

no that sticker is on my mates VLT but not on mine, or any other VL ive seen, maybe they used a couple for test track and thats why they got the sticker Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

guys, numbers go like this 8 - GMH design Luxury Level K - Commodore SL L - Commodore Berlina X - Calais Body Style 19 - 6 Window sedan 35 - station wagon Engine Code 6 - 3.0ltr NA 7 - 2.0ltr NA 8 - 3.0ltr Turbo J - 5.0ltr V8 Model Year F - 1986 G - 1987 H - 1988 Assembly Plant J1-J9 - melbourne L1-L5 - adelaide Serial Number Sequential production serial number for each assembly plant Model Code L - VL

It was to do with a recall type issue. I've owned many VLTs with the same sticker
