VIN ID NEED HELP!
Morning all.My first time here. I just bought a car at a self storage auction. It has 442 on the side of the car and everything is there except the motor. The vin tag reads FT72 3S667LAN443506bdy
TR 940-color Black

Can someone please tell me what kind of car this is from the VIN PLATE. Cutlas,Clone,442? Thanks.

Second, what body style is this? The "FT72" (which may be "ST72", check again) would indicate a 1972 model year car. The "3S667" would indicate a convertible - the "67" is the two digit code for the convertible body. The first "3" indicates Oldsmobile division. The problem is the "S6", which is not a valid code. This should be two digits, not a letter and number combination. In 1972, the only possible Cutlass or 442 convertible body would have been based on the Cutlass Supreme, which should have been "42" in those locations on the data plate. In other words, for the 1972 model year, that body code for a convertible would have been 34267, not 3S667. Look more carefully and try to see what that "S" really is. Also, try to check the real VIN on the dash.
