its a 1987 4 door with a v12, body tag says Vanden Plas v12 but all the sites that help you figure out the serial numbers dont work. I believe the car is originally from Ontario Canada. Under the hood stamped in metal is the serial # sajjbnlw4hf476695
on the door post is # sajbn1047hc476695
anybody able to figure this out, I would realy like the help.

Sure is a Ser III VDP
Added bonus in Ontario, Canada, is that this particular year of car is now exempt from all emissions testing forever or until the rules change again.

Good for you. You've happened across a desirable model.
You've already identified it: A V12 VanDen Plas. It is a high spec model of the "Series III" saloon family.

The value can be anywhere from a few thousand to thirty-five or forty thousand dollars, all depending on condition. If it is an average used example, it will need maintenance and safety attention that will easily run to a few thousand dollars. If it has rust, multiply by whatever you like. Buying these cars on speculation is rarely prudent, but good luck!
