That's an invalid VIN. And not just because it's missing the "P" after "1FAB".

Go Google any VIN decoder and plug in "1FABP12B4AF211006" in. It'll come back as an invalid VIN.

Also, look at the model year code (10th place - "A"). That would be 1980 ('81 = B, '82 = C, '83 = D, etc.). For the 1980 model year, VINs had 11 places, not 17. That was the last model year for 11-place VINs.

Okay, I guess thats a "B" NOT "A" for the year code.
I googled vin decoder and got this...

1981 Ford Mustang Ghia 2-Door Notchback
Drivetrain: Rear Wheel Drive
Transmission: 3-Speed Automatic
Engine: L6 3.3L 200cid GAS VIN B


...BUT this car is NO notchback, not anymore anyways.

I guess either one of these conversions.

1981-1982 Automobili Intermeccanica Convertibles
Bivouac Convertibles

How can you tell the which company did the conversion
