Ritchie Rich Posted September 11, 2019 Author Share Posted September 11, 2019 Hello Richie Rich here This is the follow-up to the engine number and Vin number not that I posted twice earlier These numbers were taken from the door pillar * 57WA * 461751 * BAJ58B-102-747-G19-501 Any info you have would be welcome thanks Ritchie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_S_in_Penna Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Can you post a picture or two of your Lincoln? There is no way that a 1957 model would be made in 1960, and the pictures will confirm what the serial numbers tell us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nzcarnerd Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Definitely a '57, and built in Wayne, Michigan. The last number for the 1957 model year was 46,232 so yours is one of the very last of the season. It would appear from this one that detailed information regarding decoding the body tag may no longer be available. Although I am sure someone will have researched it. https://www.thehenryford.org/collections-and-research/digital-resources/popular-topics/production-records Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzcarnerd Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 There seems to be a dearth of information for Lincolns before 1958. Just one example - http://www.vinwiz.com/faq.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritchie Rich Posted September 12, 2019 Author Share Posted September 12, 2019 Hello nzcarrnerd Thanks for your help It looks like from the number then that the Lincoln was the the 57th from last to be built in 1957 So maybe someone will know a bit more about the tag for the trim etc! Thanks again for your help with this All the best from Ritchie Rich Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
