[QUOTE="Jonboat Jerry, post: 242442, member: 6334"] Hi RRawhide, F4F is correct with the breakdown of your HIN. Over the years, there have been 3 attempts to Standardize the HIN, so one has to know the year of manufacture to know which scheme was in use at that time. From Mid 1970 to Dec. 1984, this was the scheme in use. #-o Since mine is a '78, LWNXXXXXM78G LWN=Lowes Industries XXXXX=Serial Number M=a Spacer Letter used before the date (this may be the location of Mfr.) 78=1978 G=March From your pics, they didn't change much in those 10 Years. :) Keep Hacking....Jerry [/QUOTE]
