vin problems

hi
just bought a F250 1991, that was originally imported to Stockholm Sweden.

now i found two different vin numbers om it, the first one is 2tnga53d9my30700 and the second one is 2FTHF25M8MCA24151. the latter seems to be ok, but what is the otherone?

thanks in advance!

Peter

2FTHF25M8MCA24151 seems to be ok.
2ft=Ford Motor company of Canada (Complete Vehicle)
H=Hydraulic Brakes, Class H 8,501-9000 Pound GVWR
F25=F250 4x2 Regular Cab
M=7.3 Diesel Navistar
8=Check digit
M=Model year 1991
C=Ontario Canada Truck
A21451=Sequence Number (A=00001-99,999)

The first Vin you posted should have 17 digits. You only posted 16. There is no listing for a 2TN. Probably a fake Vin.

ok, someone told me that tristar might have put another "number" on it. could that be it? The model is Ford Tristar Tsf 257. Oh i left out the last digit on the first "vin" it should be an 8.

thanks
