Hello newby looking for vin info


Hello I bought a 53 2 dr hardtop last summer and plan on working on it this summer. I got a package deal and picked up 2 54 4drs with it and later a 53 4 dr for parts. They all have siezed 6 cyls flatheads, 2 autos and 2 standards.I was told if I post the vins on here someone could tell me what models they are and register them to keep track of them. They are all made in Canada with the following vins

1    53-2-dr vin 3203721347 model 20-37D

2    54-4-dr vin 4206907109 model 20-69WD

3    54-4-dr vin 4226918430 model 22-69

4    54-4-dr vin 3206920530 model 20-69W

Someone told me the second one was a Laurention and I believe the first one is too ? 3rd? 4th?

I have heard nothing but good things about this post.

Thanks for any help

i have the canadian parts book 46-57 and it lists the

1 53-2-dr vin 3203721347 model 20-37D as an Laurentian

for 54 it doesn't list the trim level names or i'm just miss reading. because all three state "Sedan - 4 door notch back 4 window"

from what I can see in the pics and the vins the first is definetly a 54 4 door laurentian 4206907109 2069wd is a laurentian 4 door code.
The second is also a 54 4 door but maybe a pathfinder or pathfinder deluxe from the trim on the side.
The third is a 53 4 door model and the fourth judging from the top of the taillight is also a 53 but a 2 door.
On your plates there should also be a body number,color code,engine code,etc.I'm a little confused on the last 4 digits 7109 should mean its the 7109 car off the line with 4641 4 door laurentians built in 54.Probably means yours was produced late in 54.Mine is 00013 so the 13th car off the line,built in nov of 1953.I'm sure there are others here who can give you a lot more info still.

How are the doors on the hardtop? I'm presuming that's the car to be restored.
Reason I ask is because I have 2 pretty decent doors off a 53 Chev hdtp that will interchange.

Steve
You are right I made a mistake on 3206920530 model 20-69W it is a 53 (deluxe)(3rd pic). I should have taken pics of the id plates too.The 4th pic is a 53 2 dr laurention thats what I thought. The 1st and 2nd pics are the 54 4 drs. I was told the 1st pic is a 54 4 dr laurention
The order of the pics got mixed up from the order I took them the order of the big pics are 2.3.4.1 in relation to the list of vin numbers.

Thanks alot for your help
Rodney

Like I said the first in definetly a 54 laurentian,the clincher being I can see the round medallions on the rear fenders and those are exclusive to the laurentians from the articles I have.
