No, Lori (Museum) told me the vin won't come until about a week from the TPW. Likely 2 from the actual build day. I won't bother her again for another 10 days. lol Now 17 days from build week.
Thanks soooooooo much I'm at 3400 with a Vin # 5429
Congrats Gilles! I know its been a bit of rough road for ya... must feel good!
Do you know when you went 3400? How long before your TPW?

I have a real good feeling that your car will be built no later than Friday the 17th!

This is the puzzle. I think there is no info on 3300 status. THAT is where your parts are at BGA. That is definitely assigned 3 weeks before the TPW.
The VIN is assigned at 3400 and at a certain amount of time before the ACTUAL BUILD DAY.
So, with that in mind one gets a vin and goes to 3400 sometime between one week and 2 before the build day.

Does the dealer know how to get the vin at 3400?
"Tell him to do an order inquiry manually and there will be a vin incentive lookup link..... way, way, way, way to the right. "

Yes I gave them all the instructions and they said they couldn’t figure it out. Said they would let me know when they get notified on the VIN. Not sure how or when that happens.

Sorry, I have to laugh. That will happen when the car is built for them (3800). Unbelievable really. How much money do we have to spend to get accurate info?
GM, Get into this decade will ya! If I could only talk to someone with brains at GM .....
In my case the VIN at 3400 was not the final VIN but the last 8 were correct.

You can figure out your own vin.
To summarize.
So 1G1Y72D43L5101153 First four are always the same.
1st is Country of Origin: 1 = USA
2nd is Manufacturer: G = GM
3rd is Make of car: 1 = Chevrolet
4th is Car Line or Series: Y = Y-body series (Corvette)
5th is 6 = 1LT, 7 = 2LT, 8=3LT
6th is 2 = coupe, 3 = HTC (Vert)
7th is always D (restraint system)
8th is engine type 4 = LT2
9th is the Check Digit. Use the Check Digit Calculator
10th is model year L = 2020
11th is 5 = Bowling Green
12th is 1 = customer, 0 = CTF
The rest is partial vin. (sequential)
