There ya go! Clap

"CJ-2A 35010" is the actual vehicle serial number (VIN)

That number would originally have been on 4 different tags:
  • frame tag
  • firewall s/n (patent) tag
  • firewall body tag
  • dash center tag

Well, it's not exactly black & white.

In "general" production, they disappeared about s/n 227xx +/- a few (roughly ACM #13000).

"Special" production needs delayed some tubs from sequential use on the assembly line, so these have much higher serial numbers than "general" production vehicles, but ALL have ACM numbers less than 13000.

I believe the "29500" reported in the history page was one of these "special" tubs, and it was assumed at the time of writing that all preceding tubs had indents too, but that's not the case.
