European ones are SA for the following years: 79-83 and FB for 84-85. Which is kinda weird, since the cars are basicly the same as in the USA apart from some minor differences (no cats etc), and we didn't get the GSL-SE either.

SA22C was the beginning of the VIN under the old system, where manufacturers determined their own VIN.

Otherwise the chassis code of the FC would be P747.
