Ford Australia[edit]

Australian VIN format[edit]

Ford Australia have used the same basic system for chassis numbers on Australian assembled vehicles since the early 1960s.^[1] When Australia went to mandatory 17-digit VINs in 1989, the Ford chassis numbers became 17-digit VINs by the addition of 6FPAAA ahead of the original numbering system.^[2] With the exception of some L-series (Louisville) trucks fitted with other brands of engine, engine numbers match the VIN with the 6FPAAA omitted.
