You know, i'm not absolutely sure on that point.

I vaugely remember adding support for 1956 trucks, and thinking that the numbering scheme was a little different than 55's.. but the '57's thru '59's were simular.

The idea was to add '56 support and have people test it.. not just for the '56 years, but for all years.. to make sure the newly added '56 data hadn't corrupted the other data.

I then added a new thread and mentioned '56 support, asked for people to test and let me know.. but there was little to no responce.. then I got distracted.. to be honest I had forgotten all about the VIN Cruncher untill just now.

One of those.. "hey, thats a cool idea.. wait a second.. *I* made that!" kind of moments.

There was a time when I was pretty gung-ho about the project.. I always wanted to add pictures, or at least the sketches (from the resto/shop manuals) of the different model trucks to the Cruncher.. that way when you typed in the "vin" of a '46 you'd get a picture of what the truck would have looked like along with the decoded data.. a public plea for this information resulted in 0 responce, so I said to hell with it. smile


an idea is only stupid if you think about it rationally.
