    Even if it is that VIN seems low for April production. Why the date format change?

    The car production date fits to original DeLorean musem data. I’ve learnt this from the Original Owners Certificate issued by the Delorean Museum. It reads:
    Build started on March 27,1981
    Build completed on April 2,1981
    Among the first shipment of cars to the USA on April 19, 1981 aboard Continental Highway to Long Beach, CalifornĂ*a
    I haven’t found any records explaining the full date format in the VIN plate yet…

    That type of date on the VIN plate was the original style. It was changed a few months into production. As mentioned by others it’s a European date: day, month, year.

    My VIN:    7138

    VIN 7138 Cave Art

    These are super fun, almost like stepping back in time!

    Here are mine - I spy 12xxx to 17xxx re-VIN, keycode K7xxx, signature from a Phil, and initials from KS, RJC, and RB. (Hey, those are my initials - as if it was meant to be!)
