Pretty new and finally getting around to really starting on the car we inherited. When I look to ID the car the tag in the wheel well and in the back seat have been pulled but on the engine is H 5518730, body stamp on the inside of the right front is 319333 and number on the top left of dash is 1503096744.

Any help appreciated. Thanks

...1969/1970.....numbers 150 2000 001 to 150 3100 000,,,type 1 convertible..late number in sequence = 1970.......it's easy to change the number plate on the dash......pull the back seat and find the number on the hump under the seat....find an "oval " shaped plate with a screw in it and find the number stamped into the metal foreward of the plate

1500 engine from 1969 H 5 414 586 thru h 5 900 000

get familiar with the technical section of this site...this info took me less than 5 minutes to compile
