I figured we get the low VIN either way because, like you say, it should be the first 86 for the US, but an additional number plate would be nice.

Honestly, I'd just as soon not get #1 though. I'm gonna ride this pony until its ready for the glue factory, and will eat up any "special" value the serial number might have.


With #1 I'd feel guilty about it, but I'd still do it. Maybe I need to build a frame-off restoration fund into the operating cost!
