VIN number of the blumax
Built in September 1969 and delivered to its original owner at the factory in Munich on 1 October 1969--BLUMAX wears VIN #2270016--
I had known #2270015 (the long time owner was a neighbor of mine in the late 1970's in Laguna Niguel< CA) and saw it again a couple of years ago at the annual BMWCCA clean car event in San Diego--it is in need of some serious TLC--#2270011 is in need of repair and DP who posts here is the owner--was hoping to fill in the gaps of the earliest numbers to see if they are still around.

Interesting, VIN #s seem to 'bounce' around a bit.
Your early example '69 is 227XXXX, mine and another early Frenchie mention on this thread are 220xxxx', then I saw some 228's.
I wonder if the first 3 numbers have something to do with delivery destinations more than chronological order. Or did they make a few thousands and then they 'sat' at the factory waiting for dealer orders?
Delivery dates seems to be within a couple weeks after the build dates.
Anybody know the VIN logic per chance?

I have 2270012 in NJ.
260K miles, 3.5, 5 speed, a little rough in places. It's been repainted a lighter shade than the original Baikal.
