VIN decoder - Third Generation F-Body Message Boards

Hi all, after viewing all of the decoders here and trying to determine whether or not my IROC was indeed an IROC or a well-dressed RS I found a great link to that tells you. Why you may ask, well I adopted her and want to know her true heritage!

- Anyway I was pleased to find that this link from Carfax provides you the answer for free. It will clearly be listed; as mine returned " Year/Make/Model: 1990 CHEVROLET CAMARO IROC-Z." Needless to say- I was very pleased, and I bid you the best of luck as well. I also ran another VIN I found on this message board and it returned "Year/Make/Model: 1990 CHEVROLET CAMARO RS."

Anyway here's the link:

Hope it's useful,
Töm

Not off hand, I would first recommend going through anything posted by Sticky. It can't be the first time the question has been asked. I see alot of talk about RPO codes, I don't know if it'll help but it's worth a look. Also, I've seen a few members that have access to some sorta GM (I think) database. From what I can tell, if you ask them nicely they may be able to get you quite a bit of info from your VIN code. Hope this helps, -for what it's worth.

i would like to run my VIN but i cant justify $20 just to figure out what my car really is.

It tells me that its an 87 Trans am with a 5.0L which is exactly what i expected. Even though it doesnt have a 5.0L in it anymore.

Sometime ago, there was a thread about identifying the GM build
sheet, given a VIN. I'm not clear on the details, but the service
was provided by a young lady (also an F-body enthusiast) that
worked in a GM office where such records were kept. I.E. she did
this gratis for board members. The best I can suggest is start
searching on the tags below. If you can get the build sheet/RPO
codes, there was (is?) an RPO decoder utility downloadable here.
(Build sheets are usually attached to the underside of the console lid,
or somewhere under the carpet, in the back seat ares.)

Good luck
