Default VIN for the first FRC in 2000

Any way to figure this out?

Comparing notes with @Corvette Don who also has a Y2K FRC - his VIN ends with 5124332 and mine with 5112397 (mine appears to be 11935 units earlier). Any idea what the VIN of the first Y2K FRC would be?

But did either one come from the factory with the actual plastic pull tab installed and attached to the trunk release and gas door release lines?

I found these in the documents that were given to me when I bought the vette, keep in mind they are from 2001....

Interesting in that there were only 5 colors used and all have black interior!

.

Have you o remember that the FRC was supposed to be the “billybob” entry level Corvette. Didn’t really end up that way with quite a few options available but upgrade seats and colors was not one of them.
