I've contacted the CHP Motorpool on my car. They said that it's been too long. And that our cars were around before they started putting all their information on computer. All the paper records are gone. :-( I've also got a CHP buddy that could not find anything. If you get a good lead, maybe you could help me find out about mine, too.

AC HB
SK
G6 PF 1016 720009
2 111908 50


Where our cars will vary should be where mine says 111908. I think that this is the build number?
I think my 2nd buck tag is gone it looks like it is chopped off

Look for your CHP ID# on the drivers door:



These were put on with a paint pen and many times are still visible in relief, even if the surface has been painted over (and not sanded). Two other places to look where it sometimes shows up is on the face of the front license plate cover (in grease pencil) and the back side of the rear seat cushions (in felt pen).

Thanks guys, I just got the whole cooling system done, new hoses, water pump, thermostat, and a extra duty 3 core aluminum radiator. So the cooling system should be cool for a while. Also since the car was lowered it was leaking oil out of the oil filter because it was hitting the sway bar, so I had to get a shorter oil filter put on, and I got the oil changed as well.

Lowered or not, if your car still has the oil cooler on it, a standard oil filter will not fit without hitting the swaybar. Sounds like someone tried jamming one in there anyway.
