12/28/2020 Prep to Move the Bel Air

 Today was the start of our process to move Herb's Bel Air inside to get some work done. 

This was the biggest problem to moving the car. It had sat for so long that there were flat tires.

This is the former location of Lindner Motors in Cottonwood, AZ

The Bel Air's VIN is VC56L-073102

V - V8 Model

C- Bel Air

56 - 1956 Model

L - Los Angeles Assembly Plant

073102 - Production Number

Here is the Body Tag

56-1037D - 1956 Bel Air 2 Door Hardtop

VN 8478 - Body Assembled in Van Nuys, CA

Interior Trim No. 584 - Turquoise Cloth/Vinyl

Paint No. 754D - India Ivory over Tropical Turquoise

There are options on the car but they are not always listed on the Tag. One unique option is the 3 speed manual transmission with overdrive.

I used this tool to decode.
