Jeremy
Correct. All check digits can be calculated by knowing the other digits in the VIN and doing some calculations. It better match.

They have the normal reports. The Emminger Reports are hit and miss.

I'm guessing you asked for an Emminger report. Those were available first.

Having seen yours I'll probably spring for a report as well. Imagine mine would read identically other than VIN, selling dealer, and build date. Agreed on the potential increase in value when it comes sale time. Most of the planet still isn't aware of these cars, or how they came to be, outside of the collector realm and serious Fox-body aficionados.

I already have a good quality, laminated reproduction window sticker which is displayed at shows, so this would be a nice addition to the growing paper trail. Still would like to get my grubby paws on the original ASC glovebox brochure for operating the top mechanism. Anyone here have one in excellent condition they'd like to get rid of? Unfortunately missed the one that went through on eBay a few weeks back from that seller in Michigan who seems to have possession of every ASC related piece of paperwork in existence.

Anyhow, thanks for sharing... greatly appreciated.

I just got a replacement door sticker from Marti.

It is 100% perfect. Exactly like my old one. I did send him a picture of my old one to go by.

Even the engineering number for the sticker is correct. The numbers are uneven (vertically), exactly like the original.

Worth every penny, IMHO.

I have the Marti report for my car too. I'll try to post it.
