Hey Magicka, I don"t know how to decode the vin off your car, but I also own a Skylark GS 400 convertable. I'm currentlyb trying to restore mine so maybe we can trade ides and info in the future. Mike
Hello all. I've been reading through the site and the boards for a while, but now I've got a question.
I'm looking at a 1969 GS400 Convertible, and I need some help decoding the VIN and ident plate.
The VIN is:
444679Y216255
The plate isn't in great shape. It looks like it had some rust spots and was painted over. I copied down as much of it as I could.
ST 69 -44467 BW02079
TR 164 65
06B 0650
If it's a noob question, I apologize. I appreciate any help you guys can give me. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the help Bob. I found some similar info after I posted here. 44467 makes it a Skylark Custom series Convertible Coupe, not a GS400 Convertible Coupe (Model 44667), correct?
Is there any place I can find the original equipment, color and history of this car?
Also, can someone clear up the differences between the GS400 and the Skylark Custom series?
Mike, if I pick this car up I'll definitely be interested in swapping ideas and info. I'll keep you posted.
Thanks for all your help, guys.
