I'm now on my second b190. My current, which I've had about 3 years is a June 1999 build with Airstream production number 301389. The plaque I took the image from only shows these last 6 digits. I'll try to find another plate.
Seems like their numbers were all over the place by the end of its run.
Not sure if you need the Ford Vin.
I actually track them by the Ford VIN because, if any ads include a VIN, that's almost certainly the one that it'll have.

Yours would be the new highest VIN we have - definitely interested in both VINs for yours.

#301389 should be a 2000 B190 (the chassis might be 1999, though). If so, the Airstream VIN would be: 1B9KGVA24YJ301384

Hi Skater,

Close on the VIN. I've actually got: 1B9KGVA23YJ301389.
The Ford VIN is: 1FDSS34SXXHB62743
Showing June 1999 build.

That last year of production must have been a bit all over the place.

I think you said the final years they were just called a B van maybe.

Anyhow, hope this helps. Keep up the cracking work.

Skater I was looking at your? Spreadsheet and mine doesn't fit the criteria either
1992 with #472
I just registered #GillyB190Van

I'm not sure what you mean - #472 fits right in the known sequence numbers for 1992 models (for 1992 models, #345 is the lowest I have, and #481 is the highest I have).

Thanks for supplying the VIN info! I've added them to the database. It wasn't in the database before.

I just realized I never added yours! Done now. Roughly speaking, where are you located? (City and state is fine, or whatever you're comfortable with.)

Added it! The 9 is correct - all of the Airstream VINs for these start with "1B9".

We're up to 22% of the B190s in the database!
