SteamAhead Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 I have a guy very interested in buying my Supra and has requested the year & month of manufacture (so he can put it on classic car insurance). Now, with the details I have, I work it out to be about March / April 1997 it was built. As a lot of you guys are more clued up than I, could you confirm if this is correct or not, as I just want to make sure I have the details correct before texting him back. Spec: Toyota Supra 3.0L N/A Facelift (non-vvti version) P reg 1997, White 5 Gear Manual. Taken from the chassis plate: Model: E-JZA80-ALMVF Engine: 3JZ-GE 2997cc Frame No: JZA80-0039840 Colour: 040 Trim: FA20 Trans/Axle: W58 A01A Plant/Built:A22 Where I got the info: http://mkiv.supras.org.nz/specs.htm Cheeeeeeeers!!

jamesmark Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 I dunno mate, I am sure someone will help but why the sodding Nora does he need the month? Is that just the most pointless request of info when actually buying the car or am I missing something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ewen Posted April 8, 2007 Share Posted April 8, 2007 March '97 according to this.... http://www.mkiv.co.nz/specs.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteamAhead Posted April 8, 2007 Author Share Posted April 8, 2007 don't go there mate, I've been getting all sorts lately. I spoke to the guy yesterday and he wants to know when it's 10 years old to the dot due to wanting it on classic insurance. I did not know you could on ours, but from reading older threads this does seem to be the case.. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
