Hey! New to the rotary scene, but I found an RX-7 I couldn't pass up. My first issue is, it does not have a 17 digit vin! Decoders can't find it. But it has been insured under this VIN.. Any ideas?

If the US is like Aust it may be a private import and is using the original Japanese number. I wouldn't get to concerned abt it. The only issue is identifying the car for parts.
