  • Numbers on firewall

    Hi, I just got a 1950 Champion 4dr. On the firewall is the number 9G-W5 and below that 28799. Can anyone tell me there meaning? Thank You, Stephen

    This is the body tag, not the vehicle serial number. 9G defines the year and model number, W5 defines the body style, the 28799 indicates the number of bodies made. If you are new, a first purchase must be the factory parts manual

            9G = 1950 Champion W5 W = 4dr sedan 5 = Regal Deluxe trim level

            28799 = 28,799th 9G-W5 body tub that was welded up for production.
