I was checking my Original Coupe for the Assembly Plant ID Number.

After looking at the areas given in publications and here on line I found nothing.

Then I found an indentation on the passenger side of the door sill and in there is the following number 7513 but no letters.

Could this be the Assembly plant ID?

Could be...to bad no letters showed up.

Mine was on the drivers-side door sill.

Canadian body, but without a letter. No idea as to the assembly plant.

All the Canadian 30/31 roadsters I have seen here have the numbers in the same place but are preceded by 7F or 8F. All of ours came from Ontario.

Are you sure that the first character isn't a T rather than a 7. T is the code for TORONTO, ONTARIO.

Hi Don.

Car was sold new near Lake Placid. NY, but this is not a Canadian build one.

If the car was sold new out of Lake Placid, NY...more than likely it was assembled either at the Buffalo plant or the Kearny (28-29) or Edgewater (30-31) NJ plant as the "line" of the sales area is very close in that vacinity.

Hi Don,

I have never seen a body number here in NZ prefixed with a T. They are always F.... eg. my early roadster F75 or a numeral F..... eg my '31 coupe 1F7509

Will check out that area again to see if there is more
