This is great! I didn't check yet to see if the serial number is in the database, but they list it within the video:

Russell:
Where did the VIN 2154 come from?
That car looks nothing like the original 2154.
As Ronnie Reagan once said "trust but verify."
I'm just trying to verify as the car pictured does not resemble 2154 at all. Please help me out here.
Thanks so much,
John

John-
Yes, it could be totally wrong. In the video, at 7:27, they put it on the screen when "Grandpa" verifies it and says it, but you can't really hear him very well. They have it listed as a weird number, 561-22154 is how they listed it on the screen. Close, and I assumed the 2154 was the last four, so the serial #. Like I said, someone needs to contact the younger couple and see if they would care to verify and share more info about the car. Pretty weak on my part, I know.

I wrote them and reached out. We'll see if they get back in touch with me.

That?s was my Mark II . #1254 recently sold out of Detroit. Barry and I did a modest amount of work too it . (A small job snowballed into a lot of work)It was very well loved and took us to a lot of great events and we received a lot of awards made a lot friends especially Barry Wolk!!! I purchased it on the west coast Portland Ore. It?s kinda bittersweet to see the video but the joy on Grandpas face made it ok.. we really loved that car!!
