How do I Find out how many of these are in the states and what it is worth, needs work and cant afford to drive it Runs on 98 leaded Plus runs great on race fuel ,total euro, Anybody have a link or somone I Can call that has info on these German Gems . Also the car was imported over from Germany by a navy officer into Washington state has port of washington stamp on drivers door Jamb

My site hasn't been updated in several months but since these cars are older, it shouldn't matter much.

XK is the Euro code for the engine {it isn't a US/ Canada or Japan car}.

VIN # Explanation:
The VIN/chassis number codes for the early years is straight forward: 924 is the model. 7 is 1977 (8=1978)etc. Then the fifth digit is either 1, 2, or 3 for the model version; 1 is Europe/RestOfWorld, 2 is USA, 3 is Japan. All followed by the 5 digit serial number. The serial number starts over for each model year and country

Take your VIN # ie: 9247102150.
924 is the model {924}
7 is the year {1977}
1 is the European version
and 02150 is the serial number {2150th one made in 1977 in Europe}

The Vehicle Identification plate is located on the left hand windshield pillar and can be read from the outside of the car, through the windshield. The Vehicle Identification Number can also be found on a plate inside the engine compartment, adjacent to the battery. {see pic below}

The Chassis Number is stamped on the upper right hand MacPherson strut housing.

The Engine Identification Number is stamped into the engine, just to the left of the crankcase. It is adjacent to the clutch housing.
