I keep getting the factories mixed up. What were they and in what order, what were their production dates?

My car was built in August of 1979 and has a TCT Vin number. Where was it built?

Which cars had the medal medallion on the front of the car? My car is a 30 anniversary car if that helps.

Have fun, drive fast & safe, be kewl,

your was built at Canley.

Speke 1st, Canley 2nd and Solihill last.
