Make our own Build Sequence for Heritage Editions

The Top Banana Charger listing over at LXforums.com gave me an idea.

This will never be a complete listing, because there is no identifiable sequence number (ala Daytonas or SuperBees) and not everyone with a Heritage Edition is, or will be a member of the forums... and there will be '07s soon added to the list... but at least we can get an idea of the build order of our own cars (I think). The last 6 digits of our VINs does not indicate overall build sequence. Nonetheless, we can compare these numbers and find our vehicle's place, relative to one another of the same model type, in how and when it came off the line.

I know I'm not the first one, CHROMER, but I'll start anyway, and keep the list updated as new info is made known here and on LXforums.com. Currently, hystiker holds the earliest built H.E. identified on this listing. CONGRATS. And the latest build date/hour on the list for '06 models goes to Bowtie-Bri on 6/09/06.

Even if you see one sitting on a lot and you can get the VIN and Mfg info from the door panel post it here! The MMonth/YYear of manufacture is at the top right corner of the sticker, and the MMonth/DDay/HHour (MDH) of manfacture is on the lower left, right before the paint code.

Majority of VINs courtesy of ResumeSpeed! (more added 5/24/06 - THANKS!)

Let me hear from you, even if you see one sitting on a lot and can get the VIN and Mfg info from the door panel.

Hi Goofy...What a great idea!

Owner: Chromer's Wife ........Date of manufacture 02/06
402478 Vin seq.
and...021417 307AA (have no idea what that means?)

List Updated... Thanks Chromer! Can you get the info on that other one at your dealers?

Come on MrBudd and tinastark... and the owner who was at the SoCal Spring Fling (I know you were there... I saw the pic of your BB H.E. !)

The vehicles do not come off the line in exact VIN sequence order, so when comparing different VIN numbers the lowest will not necessarily have been the "first" built and the highest not the "last" built. In other words, you cannot determine exact build date order by the VIN sequence number. Below are a few examples I found to help you get started with your list...

Geeazz ReZoom..
Great investigative work. Your Hertiage Link is by far the most exciting definitive flyer I've seen yet. It reaffirms my initial assessment that is one special car. There may be a day when (and maybe not) that Mopar fans will say.."I could have bought one those Heritage's for MSRP.." ??

:hijacked: :hijacked: OK...no more hyjacking this thread...

Let's get back to collecting VIN numbers!

jperaino said:
Mine is 395643
Welcome jperaino, and CONGRATS on having a Heritage Edition! Please look at your door panel and tell us the month/year of manufacture (top right corner) of sticker, and the date/time of manfacture (lower left, right before the paint code).

ResumeSpeed... are you trying to burst my bubble? j/k :01: Thanks for all those VIN IDs... hope we hear from most of them. Now I've got to try to figure out what I'm going to do with them and my list.... Hmmmm.

Chromer... can you get the info from the other Inferno Red one at your dealer?
 
#9 ·
Don't go out of your way, just for this... I thought maybe it was close. You could call them and ask for the info. I did that for the Banana Charger thread... our local dealer had two that I had seen, but I didn't know the numbers... I just called, told them about the thread... said it might help them sell... and he was more than glad to give me the info. In fact, called me back this morning (day later) to give me the second number.

its funny this heritage editions are suppose to be limited but i have seen more HE then i have seen SRT8's out there. i have seen 3 HE so far. one at the dealership(which was sold), one driving the other day and one at the place my brother works at. the one from yesterday i think was from the sarasota area. 2 reds and one black

If they make 5000 H.E.s (ala GoMango and Banana Chargers, 4000), and if they are evenly distributed around the country that would place 100 in every state. If they make 15000 H.E.s that would place 300 in every state.

However, it is doubtful the distribution would be "even," and larger dealers in larger cities might just get more.

Funny though... our local Dodge dealer has two Banana R/Ts and two GoManGo R/Ts which have been sitting on the lot for some time I think.

All I know (or think I know) is that mine is unique in WV, and maybe within a 100+ mile radius of here... unless more owners chime in.

Tim,
I did respond in your other thread as to the owner of the BB Heritage at the Spring Fling. It's KLO. I suppose you could try sending him a PM.

Guess I must've missed that... it was kind of buried in a different thread. I'll send KLO a PM and see if it gets a response. THANKS!

Do NOT get me started! :hitit:

My sticker says... "This vehicle made exclusively for Timothy Lindstrom"

Chromer's H.E. sticker says... made exclusively for 'her name'

You've got to quit talking to artichoke! :twak:









just kidding. The title is in both our names... no pre-nup here after 31 years!

its funny this heritage editions are suppose to be limited but i have seen more HE then i have seen SRT8's out there. i have seen 3 HE so far. one at the dealership(which was sold), one driving the other day and one at the place my brother works at. the one from yesterday i think was from the sarasota area. 2 reds and one black
Sorry...never mind...

DUH?..N.S.....Brrilliant Gump! We are REALLY SURPIZED that you have seen more of the Heritage than the SRT8....(never mind That ALL the Heritage Edition models will only be produced from February 'till May. 2006 ..) WHAT A SURPRIZE!! ...BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!

Just Curious?? How many 8's and HE's will you have to choose from in July???
boy chromer i think your reaction to my comments are a little harsh. i was just making a general statment that i have seen more HE's than SRT8's and living in a state where we have received a lot of the 8's here i just thought it was odd. some one needs to relax and take a nice ride in there car. :smashfrea
also what does production dates have anything to do with the actual production and availibility if they end up making 5000 HE's and 5000 SRT8's. there will obviously be more 8's around for the fact they are in there 2nd year of production and there are more already out there. i am sure eventually when the HE's cool down like the 8's did they will be just as readily available as the 8's.

Thanks mrbudd! List is updated...

Chromer... It was just a comment on his observation. Urban... probably not meant as harsh at you took it.

MY thread... play nice!

Thanks for the info. It looks like you have the earliest made so far... BUT... We need the day and time code from the bottom left of the door panel sticker as well. That will tell us the day in Feb., that it was built and the hour of mfr. Please?

Guess maybe we're gonna need "when purchased" or "Acquired" as well...

List has been updated. Chromer... did I get your acquisition date correct (from memory)?
