I just went to get a title on a TR which came with a factory overdrive.  The
old title appropriately ended "LO", but I was told that "Os" and "Is" are no
longer acceptable in titles.  So I had to change the VIN (on the title) to
"L0".  Then I had to call the insurance company to explain the same story to
them and have them send me a proof of insurance with "L0".

 

Anyone else come across this?  Maybe it has been going on for years:  I have
4 cars with overdrive, but this was the first factory one.

I have had my TR250 CD5841LO since 1977 and this has always been the VIN number, granted the registration systems was not as automated as it is now. The only computer system I know that doesn't like O vs. 0 is AS400 which is 80 tech.  Same state as you Richard.
