Depreciation Over Time Average Plymouth values fell 4.3% in 2024, while mint Prowlers gained 12% (Hagerty). Choose specialty trims, keep OEM parts, and maintenance records.
Odometer Rollback Fraud Dodge cars and Plymouth vehicles >20 years show a 1-in-15 rollback rate (Carfax 2024). Verify mileage against the full DMV tag chain via EpicVIN.
Hidden Flood or Salvage History 18% of cars at auction in 2024 carried prior water or total-loss titles (IAAI/Copart). Scrutinize VIN for brand conversions and order an EpicVIN flood check.

How to Read a Plymouth VIN Number

VIN Description

Each character in your vehicle's unique number tells a specific story. Here's the standard VIN format, uncovering production features and technical specifications:

  • WMI (World Manufacturer Identifier - Positions 1-3) : Vehicle manufacturer and country of origin.
  • VDS (Vehicle Descriptor Section - Positions 4-9) : Body, engine size, specific details, and check digit.
  • VIS (Vehicle Identifier Section - Positions 10-17) : Year designation, plant code showing production location, and sequence number unique to each car.

There are some other details that Plymouth Fury owners and buyers should know:

  • From 1979 forward, Plymouth coded its body style in the 4th digit (e.g., "B" = sedan, "R" = coupe).
  • 1st digit "1" - the car was built in the United States; "2" - a Canadian assembler; handy when hunting rust-free cars.
  • The 5th digit on 1987-2001 cars - the restraint system; an "A" there signals an air-bag-ready steering wheel, even if the module was later removed.
  • Code "B" (11th digit) - Hamtramck, MI; vehicles from that plant show 18% fewer corrosion complaints (NHTSA 2024).
  • A "0" check-digit is statistically rare (≈ 1/11 units); resellers sometimes target those VIN numbers to hide cloned Neons—EpicVIN flag warns buyers.
  • Special order configurations like police fleet units often received unique VIN block assignments for taxi and economy applications, including Police T designation codes.

Here's how our tool interprets a sample VIN (3P3AA46K9RT212493):

Symbols Sample What It Reveals
1 3 The United States as the country of origin
2 P Plymouth as a manufacturer
3 3 Passenger vehicle type
4-8 AA46K 2-door hardtop body, engine, restraint system, car line, and price class code
9 9 Check digit for validation
10 R Model year designation
11 T Assembly plant location
