keep up the good work guys!!!!    It will take about 2 more weeks of the program running 24/7 to get ALL numbers available.  right now... I have almost completed checking 1989 cars serial number 200,000 to 300,000.  - which is very car sparce....  but the early cars were mostly several thousand VINs apart.   only later did they become frequent.

I will share... which begs to ask...  are spreadsheet tables compatible with the forum?

no, you'd have to upload them somewhere to download.

mine has a tape deck

I now have in my data base... SEVEN HUNDRED AND TWENTY 1989 TGP VINs!  yeah, so we have a few that were not discovered...  oh well!

When ya' gonna post em Ken? ;) Maybe there are only 720 cars despite those several "750" figures. Either way, thanks to you, we're a lot closer to actually being able to prove how many exist. :icon_mrgreen: Have you started on the '90's yet?

Is there a page available where we can view them?

Yea, can't wait to see the compiled list. Great work Ken

There will be some that have no record.   Why?
dealership/owner owns a car that has never been registered.
the car fell off the back of a truck!
Records may have been lost or gone poorly reported.
Prototype cars that exist in deep storage somewhere.

facts:
NO records found for any 1988 TGP. this simply means that either 1) the vins of the first car(s) was/were not a proper TGP vins  (such as the pikes peak racer) or no record exists of said tgp vin.

the first 3 cars have ONE record each, the first two were carfaxed, they came back as "destroyed", but without any verifiable date.  These maybe test mules or prototypes that were discarded.

more to come later.

I have not started 1990 TGP vins, nor will I until the next version of the discovery program is completed.     but analysis of the discovered vins will start shortly.

Here are the VIN's of the 7 in my yard.  :icon_eek: :icon_mrgreen:

1G5WP14V7KF335555 Red 89 w/sunroof
1G5WP14V3LF264257 Black 90 w/sunroof
1G5WP14V0LF292047 Black 90
1G5WP14V2LF243383 Black 90 w/sunroof and cd
1G5WP14V0LF249053 Red 90
1G5WT54V6LF301305 White 90 TSTE
1G5WT54V3LF304890 White 90 TSTE w/leather and sunroof

It was on my list already and closest to that number above. :icon_mrgreen: I got that one from Jeff's online list I think.

Yes, but Jeff's VIN is NOT the same as mine. He listed a 5 I believe, and mine has a 7. Either way, his listed is damn close to mine, but not mine.
