VIN  INFO  AND  LOCATION  FOR  PRE 80'S  SCOTTYS ________________________________________	VIN  INFO  -  LOCATION  FOR  80'S AN ABOVE  SCOTTYS ________________________________________
The VIN is located on the right side of the 'V' on the hitch as you look at it. It is about 6" or so from the coupler on the top of the right side hitch rail. In the picture at the left you can see where the arrow points to the VIN location....the white line on the hitch rail.  The VIN info is as listed below:     *  The first (2) numbers are the YEAR of Production.     * The next (2) numbers are the length of your Scotty - with  the tongue.     * The last  (3 - 4 or 5) numbers represent the number of production. There may be a Letter that either precedes the VIN or one at the end. Letters that precede the VIN  represent:      *  A  -  manufactured in Ashburn, GA plant.     *  B  -  manufactured in the Bristow, OK plant.     *  None  -  manufactured in the main, Irwin, PA plant Letters at the end of the VIN represent the model: #  G  -  Gaucho #  H  -  HiLander #  M  -  Mattress #  T  -  Tonga #  FK - Front Kitchen; which seems to be the same as Tonga?	The VIN is located on the right side of the 'V' on the hitch as you look at it. It is on the right side hitch rail slightly behind the propane tanks and may be on top or side of the rail. Seems most are on the side. In the picture at the left you can see where the arrow points to the VIN location....the red line on the side of the hitch rail. The newer Scotties starting in 1980 went to the standardized VIN numbering system as they use in automobiles.  The 10th digit represents the year of production.  Apparently only part of this longer VIN is stamped on the hitch and the entire VIN is on the title. The newer Scottys VIN  looks like this "ie: " 1SSTT11S1E21SS345 " and is longer than the older Scotty VINs. The table below shows the numbering for the years of production:  A = 1980 B-81 C-82 D-83 E-84 F-85 G-86 H-87 J-88 K-89 L-90 M-91 N-92 P-93 R-94 S-95 T-96 V-97 W-98 X-99 Y-2000 1-2001 2-2002 3-2003 4-2004 5-2005 6-2006 7-2007 8-2208
