NEED VIN OFF Brazilian truck.
 
OK so i did a lil research today,

Turns out if i can get a VIN off of a brazilian truck i was told that they should be able to order me parts in.BUT before ford can do anything they need the vin..so if anyone on here can get a vin off of a brazilian truck i can start the wheel turning on gettin parts up here and id gladly help anyone else out that wanted them but the VIN is first on the attack list...anyone that can help out PM me if u get a vin and well..ill start from there !

Semper Fi.

Seriously. Somebody has GOT to know a Marine on Embassy Duty. I know they had a Marine House in Rio when I was there in the early 90's. They threw one hell of a party for us.

So we need a hard-charging Lance Corporal to get this man a VIN. Ooo-rah.

i doubt someone will give you a VIN number

its just a headlight from a ranger, theres no VIN number involved

the ford dealer sometimes has to have a VIN to get the parts ordered. that is what they use to look up the parts. for example they use it for parts of BRAND new vehicles and forgein vehicles

Sonic_03 04-25-2006 03:56 PM

they always ask for my vin when looking for parts, he punches it in an BAM everythin my truck had oem is right there..makes total sense to me!

buzzair 04-25-2006 06:32 PM

Come on...your telling me that Ford Canada can't call up Ford Mexico and ask them for the part? If they get the VIN they need to call them anyways..just tell them to get off their asses and find that part for you.

04Sonicedge 04-25-2006 07:16 PM

Using someone else's VIN is very illegal. We have had many people at our dealership escorted out in blue and white cars wearing nice silver bracelets. :wink:

Sonic_03 04-25-2006 07:18 PM

haha riight FORD be that inclined to actually do something worth while...god thats a good one lol..i can try and get some phone numbers shouldnt be that hard...

buzzair 04-25-2006 07:27 PM

Tell em you'll make it worth their while.

Sonic_03 04-25-2006 08:16 PM

i already have with everything else ive ordered from them...by now they gotta be owin me lol..but what they dont relize is that if they can get them here and for a half decent price i know more then a few guys that would snap them up.

Boriqua_02~EdGe~ 04-25-2006 08:25 PM

try this............................

nm.........................

buzzair 04-25-2006 08:44 PM

I would go back and ask them to make some phone calls for you. If they say no again, look up ford dealers in the phone book and start making phone calls until someone is willign to help you out.

HighRollerII 04-25-2006 08:46 PM

try callin some ford dealers like right on the texas border or something

Ford is not the ones to control each dealership, the individual Franchisee has a right to do what he sees fit. We turn in every person who tries to commit VIN fraud because it not only hurts the dealership who helps the customer by using that VIN but the franchisee can lose the rights of the Franchise of that dealership. I dont know about the guys you talked to, but I need my job.

They asked my friend for a vin number for harley lights for his f250. We went out on the same dealers lot and found one. We then ordered his lights. I don't see a problem with this. Meaning who gives a sh!t if that is illegal.I wish I could help you out.

quest51210 04-26-2006 12:45 AM

dude i was trying to get a guy at walmart to sell me the one-piece headlights off of his LOBO tonight. it didnt work and then i asked for his VIN and he laughed at me, i dont blame him. if you dont know the Lobo is the 4-door ranger. they were from Mexico here shopping for the summer.

if this is illegal i'm sorry but it was from google:

VIN

02 ford lobo - 1FTRW07332KD15887

Pinecone 04-26-2006 03:55 PM

If anybody has access to Carfax check those VIN's and see what comes and if they are all good use them, and why would using someone else VIN to order parts be illegal its not like youre stealing their VIN to put on your car/truck ya know
