I have two ''Extra J6's'' and I need to establish the model year of
these cars. Can this be determined by the VIN? If so, they are:

SAJAV134XGC461226
SAJAV1348XGC454291

How can I get a copy of this "reference chart"? I know what you mean about that second VIN, but I checked again and that's what it is!

So, think there is any issue with putting an '86 head on an '84?

Dennis:

you can discern the year through the 10th character in the VIN. In this case "G". That make these 1986, according to my reference chart.

Here is some info:

VIN: SAJAV134XGC461226
Year/Make/Model: 1986 JAGUAR XJ6
Body Style: Sedan 4 DR
Engine Type: 4.2L L6 EFI DOHC 24V
Manufactured In: ENGLAND

Your second one seems to be an incorrect VIN....but would think its also a 1986.
