Re: hi from south west of france yep,there was this factory in Bienne the exterior differences with u.s versions were the square side mirrors and no spoiler |
Re: hi from south west of france All I could glean from the web was some 60s Camaros built there, with the last GM car produced there in 1975. I wonder if they prepped imported 80’s Z’s? |
Re: hi from south west of france An L or an N in the VIN might shed some light on build location. |

Re: hi from south west of france The N suggests Norwood Ohio plant. 10195 indicates it was relativey early in the production run for that year. C is the model year 1982. H is the 305 4 barrel engine. |
Re: hi from south west of france super cool that you have a 3rd gen in France! i was watching Swiss hill climbs on youtube and saw a black 3rd gen, so strange to see a 3rd gen camaro in with all the euro-box cars - that really looks like a riot! hope you get your trans fixed! matt |
Re: hi from south west of france The 1 at the beginning means the country of assembly, and being a 1 it was assembled in the USA. 1 for USA, 2 for Canada and J for Japan according to the GM parts book |
