I'm trying to do some research on my 96 R/T-10 that I just got but I'm just getting confused a lot. I spoke to a Viper Tech who's been working on them since their inception and he told me my 96 had a mix of early production 1996 and late production 1996. He thinks that as they started changing things around to make way for the GTS mine was in the middle and got some of both production runs.
My confusion comes from the end of VIN number. According to http://www.theviperregistry.org/build.php the first build of the 1996 R/T-10 was TV100001 but my VIN is TV100037 which, if they are built in running order, would make mine number 36 off the assembly line. I don't get how it would have a mix of early 96 production and late 96 production if it was the 36th Viper off the assembly line.
Can anyone help with my confusion?
Also, I was going over my VIN and according to http://www.theviperregistry.org/vin.php The 5th digit should be R which signifies it's a Viper. My 5th digit is a D ... ??? Did I maybe read it wrong? I'm not in front of the car right now but will double check when I get home.
Also what is the Check Digit? 9th digit in the vin. Mine is 8.
Thanks for any help!
