HOW CAN I GET A NICB REPORT ON A VEHICLE? https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif

Bribe a cop or an insurance investigator. The information is not available to the public. It is a private database.

Based on your other post requesting a dealer badge, it looks like you already know where the car was sold. That's all you will get on the NICB report plus a shipping date which would normally be within a week or so of the buildate on your trim tag. The NICB reports are espcially helpful for someone with a Baldwin Motion car, Dana, Nickey, etc.

I know of a Nigerian that can make this happen........ https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

Thats the problem I am up against. I have a "BY BERGER" (which is an original emblem) on my 69-Z. Can't find any paper work and called Berger at least 3X. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/no.gif

Wont find any paperwork with Berger, They didnt keep the old files.

What exactly is on a NICB report?

For older cars, the shipping date from the factory and the original selling dealer are the only useful info.

NICB is the National Insurance Crime Bureau. They retains records for statistical purposes on every vehicle ever produced by the factory. The record includes only the VIN, the dealer destination by dealership code # and the date of shipment from the assembly plant. It is not an all encompassing data base, as there are gaps: if the production records were never furnished to them back in the day by a particular assembly plant, then they dont have the records now.

....And no I don't have access, sorry https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/frown.gif

They could make a bunch of $$$ if they simply charged people a few bucks each to get the data. Kind of like Pontiac Historical for all makes, but only for the dealer info. I do agree if you have a car from a particularly famous dealership it would be gold mine of info documenting the pedigree of the car. The other use is verifying a VIN on cars with an engine code in the VIN. For example, if someone magically finds another 71 hemicuda convertible and the VIN is hypothetically BS27R1B100001, but the NICB only has a record on a VIN of BS27N1B100001, they just documented a $4,000,000 case of fraud and VIN tampering, a federal offense.

Just last week I was in my Insurance Agents office and I asked if they knew anything about the NICB because I have a classic auto I would like to know more about. Guess what, they didn't have a clue what I was talking about, and they didn't offer to try to find out.

NICB is part of ISO but the VIN search is a hands-on search using old microfiche cards from many years ago.

I am in the insurance racket and from the insurance company/adjuster/claims investigator side, they don't have as much comprehensive access to the NICB as they used to, due to the privacy laws, you really need somebody with DEEP access to get into the origination paperwork for old cars, unnfortunately, not as easy as it used to be.

Thank you for your response but this request is for another car I own a 70 Cuda https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

The last guy who did my COPO has now disappeared and this request is for another car I own. Maybe while you call Berger offer some $$ in trade for your info. good luck https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/worship.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif

You are absolutely correct dealerships only keep info. for 7 to 10 years usually because of the tax man or state requirements. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...s/confused.gif

Thank you for shedding some additional light on the subject. I do like your explanation. I was looking for the dalership because of my 70 Hemi Cuda 4 Speed. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif

They generally don't have a clue unless you are putting $$$ in their pockets. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ns/naughty.gif

Yes but I called the Chrysler Registry in Detroit and they told me the microfiche from 70 up was accidently destroyed. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/dunno.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ins/3gears.gif
