for example my stallion is vin #129 according to your vin explanation it is the 29th car.............that would mean kellison only built 29 cars from 1976 to 1979. kellison had 3 or 4 other cobra builders as vendors for his chassis and bodies, vins were issued to cars without their sequence in mind. also the vin being stamped in the places you describe was in effect the builders responsibility. some cars do not have a vin plate or it stamped on the car anywere. your info comes from where? if this is documented info please share i am sure the rest of us at the kellison registry would welcome the info.

Fred, i think you have the car n° 29.
The prototype was made in 1976.
The first Stallion (Jim's personal car) :
"This photo shows Jim Kellison's car, serial number 1, at its first official showing at the California state fair on August 18, 1977 at the Cal-Expo State Fairgrounds in Sacramento"
The car number 2 is :
Wonder Woman's Car
This Kellison Stallion was serial #2, the second Stallion built. This limited edition luxury sports car was designed and built in 1977 for Wonder Woman
It is completely possible that your car of 1978 is number 29 ??
But what number after the 99 car (SA199)?? SA1100 or SA200 ??
