Hi, I'm trying to figure out the month my 1988 Terrano was built, does anyone know if the chassis is stamped or if there is a build plate somewhere? Or do I need to decode the vin to get the month?

Cheers

not to sure if this works but found it on google

might tell you what you wnt to know

From memory the tag on the seatbelt has a month/year on it.
Why do you need to know?

Yours will be an R for pathfinder if it is not listed as a hardbody as the pathfinder originated on the same platform as the hardbody
