Calling all 1991 and 1992 B4C's

Looking for any and all VINS for the 1991 and 1992 B4C's. Still working the ongoing research. Thx. Please post full vin. This is for research only to determine how the cars were optioned.

Ultimate goal is to determine how many 5spds vs auto's. Thanks for your help!!!!!!

Why post the vin's, why not just post 5 speed or auto?

Because not all 589 people that own them come to this site. A buddy and I are trying to catalog every one of them in hopes of telling how many were 5spd, auto, black w/ black interior, etc etc etc. Cant do this without vin numbers.

Dont worry, no one can scam you from your vin number or else they would not be put in plain site.

Thx.

New guy here - how is your project going?

1G1FP23F9NL143402

305/5sp

Car is ex RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police) - just wondering, does anyone know if the widely quoted 589 B4C production number from 92 includes Z49 GM Canada ordered cars, or is that a US only figure?

thx
Neill

The only problem I see with this is that I bet half the people out there who have a B4C car either don't know it, or they don't realize what they have.

People on the net have a lot of "fake" cars. A VIN will verify a car a lot more than someone posting "I have one."

ex colorado HP car

it even still has roll bar in it as well as the siren speaker undernieth (hooked to nothing) and the special "dual speedo unit" with both a old style cable for the radar unit calibration(hooked to nothing but still run inside the car) and wires for the speedo.





if needed I could take a pic of the option sticker

Were there actually any verifyable states that "crushed" their B4C's after use?

I wonder if I can get colorados fleet manager to pass along VIN #'s of cars destroyed in pursuits?

No agency would crush them after use. That is a source of income to purchase more vehicles year after year. The wrecked ones normally went to salvage yards or they would sell them at auction too.

I might try to do a local search in my state for B4C's for you. Most are likely here in town others may be in Casper or Green River. I could search by1991 and 1992 350 vin letter since wyoming and colorado only had 350 models

Thanks for the help Tom. I would guess that Wyoming had less than 20 of them and Colorado too. The believe the 5 spds were sold to TX, Nevada, Nebraska, and North of the border in Canada. I am working other agencies that I know that had them and working to see if they have the old records and how many they bought. If they still have the vins, that would be awesome.

Well I know of one other 91 B4C from a guy that works at the highway dept and a girl that has one (I dont know what year or state hers was from) but some other colorado one ended up here, Maybe over at "Wyotech" automotive tade school over in Laramie. I also believe colorado had more than 20

The T/A doesnt have much to do with B4C's but it sounds like a rare beast since they only made 185 L98 92' T/A's. Cool.

yes, yours must be a 92 then. that is normal for 92's, if it is a 91 then you may have a new documented rarity.

B4C 1LE 305/5sp. Still has the twin spots and TxDPS asset tag in the driver's door jamb.

Originally black and white (plan to restore it to factory colors), now metallic blue. Gray interior, gray carpet. Manual windows, AM/FM stereo, cruise control, working A/C, tilt wheel. I think that is about all the options. The car spent some time being driven by Texas A&M students after retirement.

wouldnt it be nice to be able to see a registry of B4C vins, owners and locations?

p.haze92 you should consolidate them all in your first post and keep adding them by editing your fist post and listing them in sequence like this:

1991 B4C's

XXXXXVINXX00001 - XXOWNERXX XXX - XXXCITYXXX, XXXSTATEXXX
XXXXXVINXX00002 - XXOWNERXX XXX - XXXCITYXXX, XXXSTATEXXX
XXXXXVINXX00003 - XXOWNERXX XXX - XXXCITYXXX, XXXSTATEXXX
XXXXXVINXX00004 - XXOWNERXX XXX - XXXCITYXXX, XXXSTATEXXX

1992 B4C's

XXXXXVINXX00001 - XXOWNERXX XXX - XXXCITYXXX, XXXSTATEXXX
XXXXXVINXX00002 - XXOWNERXX XXX - XXXCITYXXX, XXXSTATEXXX
XXXXXVINXX00003 - XXOWNERXX XXX - XXXCITYXXX, XXXSTATEXXX
XXXXXVINXX00004 - XXOWNERXX XXX - XXXCITYXXX, XXXSTATEXXX


tell me what you think

Where all B4Cs originally purchased by municipalities? I did a carfax on this prior to purchase and that didn't seem to come up.

14xxx B4C's are pretty low number, mine in the 15xxx's is likely one of the last few produced?

frank has a 16xxxx!

and quick6 has a 13xxxx!

I never watched the show, but a dealer in Dallas had for sale a "Walker Texas Ranger" Camaro...don't recall what year it was, but it had an interesting history according to the dealer, and was supposed to be a B4C. Should be ez enough to check if you have connections in Hollywood

it's been a while.

Sold my 1992 b4c 1le over a year ago now. I will pass along the VIN and it's history when I get home tonight.

Thanks,
John

Anybody want my username? PM and I'll think about it.
