I have come across several sites where they ask what your chassis number is.
Like most since I have a w124 they will say it is a 124.090,or 124.092 etc
Yes I agree it is a 124 but that is not what they are asking
The numbers they are asking is for example to B862121 chassis
or, it will say from B862122.
So, if the case as mentioned is what chassis YOu have and you say it is easy a 124.090
I believe that yes it is chassis number 124 but what I really think is when was the chassis made in terms of when the 1st model rolled of the line.
Basically what serial number is it starting from 1 when it was made the 10th model the 200th model or the 917 th model.
From the questions I have asked previously on a few threads many have mistaken my question for the chassis body style for the production number.
Reason I know they have mistaken is if you got say 100 people viewing the thread and nobody replies. Obviously they are thinking how dumb do some research you have a 124 but Iam not going to add to your idiotness.
So now that I have addressed the question how do you decipher the the letter and then the numbers after it especially if it does not have a B to start out with.
Anyhow what does the "B" stand for in the chassis number?
What does the "F" stand for in the chassis number.
So when the parts guy ask does you chassis number end at B862121
Or does it start after B862122 and I tell the guy I do not know here is my chassis number F267684
Is the guy gonna be able to give me the right part.
I do not know because I did like so at a parts guy directly from a MB dealer and he referenced it as 124.090.
He also gave me the wrong part..
Iam assuming that because My number starts with an "F" it is after" B" it is no matter what the part that is for B862122.
I also had another person say that you substitute the "F " for a" B".
OK lets go there.
If I do that then the number F267684 is really B267684 and now you would be referencing a part that fit the description of your chassis number ends at B267684
Therefore I will give you part X because it fits to chassis number B862121.
Unless Iam reading a foreign language or this is some secret MB language that is dare not spoke of.Some one please explain because 124.090 etc is the body style number not the exact number your car was made coming off the line
