I am new to this forum. So, please forgive me if I am not posting this to the right topic area or if this question has been addressed in the past.

I run a registries for the 1982 CJ-7 Jamboree (www.82jambo.com) and the 1979 CJ-5 Silver Anniversary (www.79silver.com). These are sites for the owners of these rare Jeeps.

We have put together a lot of information regarding production. However, one thing I can't quite figure out is the "Zone Order No." listed on the window stickers and the VIN plate (on the firewall).

I am trying to figure out if this was simply a serial order number that was assigned to the vehicle before it was produced, and issued a VIN, or if the numbering somehow involved the region (or zone) where the vehicle was sent.

Any help you could provide would be much appreciated.

Thank you!

Order blanks were numbered to keep track of orders. Had no other use.
Zone numbers denoted which zone and what dealer.
Our dealer was 50-1787, 50 was the zone and 1787 was the dealer.
