Re: Serial Number

I own a 1928 Durant D75 "25th anniversary edition" with the 6 wire wheels and the radiator shell with the 3 vertical and 1 horizontal bars. They were only built one year at the Elizabeth New Jersey plant in 1928. The serial number designator has an "E" in front of the numbers. Some of them were sold in 1929 and were "titled" as a 1929. The 1929 Durant D70 was built at the Lansing Michigan plant.

Re: Serial Number

Yes you do and 1928 model year.

Model 75 was built in Elizabeth, Oakland and Leaside. We have notation of 1928 model year sport brougham vin C 1008 and 1929 model year sedan C 3158 in the registry besides the Eliz ones.

1929 model year and 1930 model year 70 were built in Lansing, Oakland, and Leaside. Frank has two 70's we are waiting for full into on for the Registry and again two of the 1930 model year are T 2127 and T 2198
Less 70's made than 75's which is reflected in the vin ranges at the 3 plants.
