laviolette GT2R, great news! Remember the VIN of the C8 Aileron Mule? That one also started with a 9 didn't it? So that could also be true!

Conclusion.....

Prototype cars now end with #9??

True/False?

Thanks Laviolette GT2R and Vinny,

Maybe 900-series chassisnumbers are only used in case of a prototype?

I put in the Aileron as #239, because I think that is wat Victor mentioned. However, I'm sometimes hard of hearing according to my wife

I sent a SMS to Victor to give us the #'s for the Aileron as well as the second LM 85.

@Rijk, I think Jeffrey meant that prototype's end with 9.. So not the last digit is a 9 but the 1 of the last 3 digits. Do you get me

So the Aileron Prototype is #908 and the Aileron Mule is #901 and maybe the D8 Protype will be #904 (example)

Victor looked on the Masterlist. #237 is listed as an Aileron, but is an in-between model of some kind (mule). The official Aileron number is #250. Sorry for the confusion.

I fixed the heading...

...and decided to ask Vinnie [ReducedSpeedAhead] for help. He was very kind and since he was actually at the L.A. Show where the Aileron prototype is also displayed, was able to read the VIN plate.

It says: XL9BA12G49Z363908

Yep, #908!

Two man say they're Jezus, one of them must be wrong...

[AX lover]

Maybe #250 is the 'build' number and #908 is the 'VIN'?

[F Spider]

Interesting. Victor showed me the masterlist on his computer with #250 being the Aileron showcar, but I haven't checked the physical vin plate
