Hi there we need some help decoding our bin number on our chieftain. We looked at the previous post about it but not very many of the numbers matched with a chieftain. Our vin number is 3226929118 Eng- w250771 Trim- 508 Paint- 359 Body- 5555 Model- 22-69 If any one can help us figure this out it would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you Holly and Chris

Do the pathfinders have the same hood emblem as the chieftain? When I looked up photos of a pathfinder it looks nothing like what we have.

If you can post some pics of the car and serial tag, I'm sure you could be helped out much faster with correct information

Thanks for the information. I have tried posting photos but it will not let me upload them. We purchased a Pontiac shop repair manual for all models 1949-1954 however it says it is based marily on the 54 models. Do you know some of the major differences? We are in the stop down faze doing body work and what not we want to keep it completly origional. We have two straight 6's we have to find a clutch and a master cylinder for it. We also have to find chrome bezles for the front head lights and we need the rear tail light covers for it too. Does anyone know where we can get any of this stuff? All of you help has been greatly appreciated thank you all again!

We have the American manual we could not find a Canadian manual for the car I spent days looking I even called the dealership and had no luck. Any idea where we can get one?
