Question on what year this is and any other info from tag

[ZZZZZZCOBRA1]

Hello I am new hear and have a few questions about this Humvee tag. Based on this tags information can you tell me what year this Humvee is and if there is anything special about it? Thanks for your help!

i would say 1985 (very low serial number), but a pic of the complete truck would help.

odd that it is missing date of delivery, registration number, and contract number,

Here you go thanks for your help. There is also a tag on the transmission and motor if those help.

I see radials on 8 bolt rims, I think that's bad.

What year does the dealer selling it say it is?

 

[tomelroy]

nothing special i can see, looks a bit overpriced, but i have seen worse.

85’s serial no. Ended at 8500

The dealer thinks its a 2006. That is why I was checking. Does the motor look like the older ones? It has this tag on it showing this date?

Can't tell much from the data plate as to what year it is.
The data plate too me has some oddities to it.

There is no delivery date shown.
The different #'s shown on the Serial # line is odd with nothing shown on the registration line.
Odd sized rivets holding data plate on.

I'd say it's pretty early from the 8 bolt rims.
I'm guessing it doesn't have a park position on the shifter.
Looks like a 60 amp alternator.
Probably a 6.2 with a 242 transfer case. (correction 218 transfer case looking at the tag on it) also it shows it was rebuilt in 92 why would they put an older transfer case in a 2006 truck?
No fording kit so probably was not a marine corps truck

Is it being sold as a registered vehicle with existing license plates ? Does it have license plates ?
Is it being sold with just a title / or just a bill of sale?
Does it come with a SF97 ? What does the SF97 say on it?

I seriously doubt its a 2006.

 

[Retiredwarhorses]

Haha...dealer is on crack.
i would never buy a hmmwv from a “car dealer”
go buy a truck on CL or get on one of the FB forums...
there are a lot of trucks out there for sale at 15k in nicer shape.

 

[ZZZZZZCOBRA1]

Great info. They say it has a title that I could it legally. Does not have park.

 

[ZZZZZZCOBRA1]

Thanks that is why I am asking!

The first pictures you posted shows a tag with a rebuilt date of 92 , so I would say no where close to 2006.

 

[BLK HMMWV]

I have to agree with RWH . I'd pass on it for that kind of money. I think you could get more truck for less money.
Do your homework.
Read through the entire sticky section at the top of the HMMWV section.
Good luck in your search.

Thanks everyone! Sure I will have more questions in the future.

The data plate has been changed. 2 extra rivets. Also the NGZ308? looks like an army registration number not a serial number.

Fellow Member Bikeman has a thread on checking history. Keep an eye here for when the 2018 thread opens:

He might be able to see what year and serial number that registration number might go to?

2006? LOL.
It clearly has 2012 painted in the door jamb!

It does not have park. Doesn't the T/C tag show 1987?
Should the serial number on the rebuild tag match the data plate?
Ask to see the title, and see what year, make, and model are on it.
