They didn't stamp the vehicles CON VIN on a warranty block.
I see that as 10R253387

Your Right, photo is not very clear and it looked like a CE

Didn't the Arlington Texas built cars stamp the Motor code always before the Con Vin code?
First time i have seen the con vin in front of a TO motor code.

Thank you very much for the replies. I unfortunately did not get the casting date or block # from the back of the engine. I meant to, but then forgot. I guess the 100 degree temperature got to me. When I zoom in on the vin stamping on the pad, it looks like a GP or CP prior to the couple of numbers that are there. Very difficult to tell. Does it look like an I in the TOI7CRV to anyone? Good question about the vin prior to the TO stamping. I was wondering the same. The trim tag is very smooth where the paint code should be, but it doesn't look sanded in that spot. It does over the interior trim area. Car is claimed to have original body panels and supposed to be Cranberry Red with vinyl top. The vinyl top holes are there, but I see remnants of orange here and there. Inside the trunk inder the package tray does show red. Please keep the opiinions coming.
