I Don’t know why you are posting this randomly here, but Corvette Mods are well documented on this forum of being complete dirt bags. No idea why anyone on this forum ever buys from them.

At this point it is at least a week later with the Week Shutdown. They are scheduled to come back today Monday 3-28-22. Hopefully production numbers go back to pre-shutdown numbers. You need to know your VIN# to accurately calculate your actual date. On Friday 3-18-22 the last day of Production before the Shutdown BG stopped at VIN# 19,601. So the first C8 built will be VIN# 19,602. They were averaging about 172 cars a day. My VIN# is 19862 so I expect build day to be 3-29-22

I have a museum pick up date of 4/11 currently. Was originally 4/5 before the shut down.

My Last 5 digits begin with 30 so could I have the wrong VIN?

Wrong number
Definitely from 19601 I’m around 1300 away. So according to Shane they are making 186 per work day on a 5 day week. That’s puts me + - April 5/6. Now I’m getting 😆 😬 very 😃.
Thank you

I am going to say yes with this explanation. My last 8 of my VIN is N5115705. I haven't deciphered the VIN, so I don't know what the N51 means, but unless you chose a specific VIN number, They are building 19,000's currently. Mine was built Feb 16. I have a hard time believing they will get to 30,000 cars in MY22. For MY23, they will start over the last 5 VIN numbers at 00001 (to the best of my knowledge)

I spoke with Shane and they did start back production today. He also said that I have gone through quality control and it is bayed for Transport. We just have to wait on the transport company to see when they want to load it and get it shipped to my area.
