VIN Tag Keyring
I thought I posted this before but cannot find anything. Also the fact that I cannot search for 3 letter words hinders just a bit. (So this is for future searches: Keys, VIN Number, Keyring, Keys Code, Dealer Ring).
Anyway, has anyone else have for their D, or seen one of these before?

I have only seen this one for my car. The previous owner (who was also the first owner) purchased this new and said it was to identify which key went with which car by having the VIN with the key in the parking lot full of identical DeLoreans. I am told the smaller tag with a 4 digit number is my key code (photoshoped to an incorrect number for use in this photo on a public forum ;-)

I recall something about this before, possibly on .com. I recall James knew something about them.
Very cool item. Would love to find mine stuffed under a seat or something.

I don't always drive cars, but when I do, I prefer DeLoreans

No-one is to stone anyone, even, and I want to make this absolutely clear, even if they do say "carburetor"

Nit-picking customer(as seen on TV)
I've never seen the large tag before. But I do have the smaller tab with the key code on my 83, and both original keys. I too got my 83 from the original owner.

Never seen that before! Maybe made by Consolidated International when they had hundreds of cars on the lot?

I have this for my car as well with both metal tags just like your picture. I keep mine in a safe place, as I assumed that they might be rare.

I have this for my car, and it was a 1983 Consolidated vin, as well. It has a yellow paper tag, with the vin number, the larger metal plate with the last 5 of the VIN number, and two of the small rectangles which I assume are the key codes.
