Want to know when your C3 Corvette first hit the road?
Our C3 Corvette Birthday Calculator lets you estimate the production date of
any 1968-1982 Corvette using just its Vehicle Identification Number (VIN).
By decoding key details from the VIN, this tool provides an approximate birthday—the date your
C3 Corvette rolled off the assembly line. Whether you're a collector, enthusiast, or just curious
about your Vette's origins, finding out its special day has never been easier!
To Calculate your C3's birthday:
Enter the VIN number of the C3 Corvette for which you'd like know its Birthday below, then click "Submit" (1968-1982 only)
Your C3 Corvette Birthday Report:
VIN: 1Z8789S451918
Model Year: 1979
Build Sequence Number: 451918
Build Year: 1979
Build Month Code: N (September)
Based on your sequence number, your approximate Build Date (Birthday) is: September 13, 1979
The Build Month Code (
N) should match the code found on your
Trim Tag.
And the day of the month (
13) should also match (or be really close) to that found on your
Trim Tag.
