The 7th digit in the VIN is listed as an 8 but it's a B for the Hamtramck, Michigan plant.

This auction is for one of the rarest police squad cars ever built. A 1979 Dodge Aspen Police spec powered by one of the most powerful engines of the era-the 360 Magnum. Most police Diplomats and the much rarer Aspens, were powered by the 318. Although a full police package Aspen, it was never equipped with a light bar, cage, spotlights or any other holes in the body.
This Aspen is an E58 spec car with intact fender tag, the rare police package throttle stop, big sway bar, the impossible to find police certified speedometer, police wheels and dog dish hubcaps. It is amazingly free of rust. The floor pans, door jambs, engine bay and trunk are all still wearing their original paint. All the door stickers, vins and fender tags are in place. The Aspen is equipped with a nice dual exhaust with a crossover pipe.
The tires on the car, while usable, are wider than the original spec. The AC system is intact and complete, but doesn't blow cold. There are not currently cats on the car and it would not be smog legal in California in its current state. It has also been converted back to Mopar electronic ignition, rather than the Lean Burn system. A Leanburn computer is attached to the air cleaner for a correct appearance, but isnt functional nor needed.
