Hi! I need to decode the VIN number: 2444A1583166.
You're missing a digit. 244 = 240 with 4 doors 4 = B21, A = 1980 model year 1 = production plant, Torslanda Sweden 583166 = chassis number (1980 range: 482585-592109) Look on the windshield pillar, in North America there's a plate with a code that starts with "VC" that has an extra digit that includes the engine type, eg B21A instead of just B21. -- Mike F.
