I'll play -
99 Convertible
Birthday 12/22/98
vin ending in 116303
Only 13 more '99's were made in calender year 98. vin 116316 was last out the door before holiday shutdown.
ps - I found a link that allows you to find your exact born on date. not sure if I can post it or not - it is a back way into a website to a "members only" section of the website.
he he he!!! tons of cool info in there. you guys would love it!!!
Found this on there to answer some of your questions:
August 19, 1998 The C5 (Bowling Green) Assembly Plant is currently producing 15 C5's an hour. They are working 10 Hr. days Monday Through Thursday and 8 Hr. days on Fridays and occasionally an 8 Hour Saturday. This means on a "NORMAL" work week they Produce 840, C5's a WEEK !!!!! with the Occasional Saturday adding another 125, C5's to a weeks total.

Big fan here too but it's been tough with the current regime... I didn't like the way the firing of Frank Solich was handled so it's been tough...
Everyone BRAGS about Blake though... Mr Recruiter!!
