1. Is there any way to tell, from the VIN #, what the original color of my car was?

2. Where can I buy a jack? (I didn't see one listed at Pelican.)

Thanks in advance,

EH

I was just digging through old threads on paint codes and "L 97 A" - and I think you're right.

And I think it's seen blue, red, and gold since then!
