    Well, its a 'BL' so that puts it between aug 79 and May 83 according to the model brochures. But beyond that I can't make anything else out in the HIN. Its been painted over, you can see the drip, and its filled in pretty good. You might be able to send the the HIN to Hatt cust service and see if they can find it.

    That HIN only has 10 digits it should have 12. The last 2 digits would be the year .
