That would not be the original VIN, the 17 digit convention didn’t come in till the late 80’s, I think.

Gary1964 your Cortina decodes as follows:
CG78EU is the Chassis Prefix where: C= Ford of Britain (Export product, usually as a CKD kit) G= Broadmeadows, Vic (Assembly Plant) 78= 4-door GT E= 1965 U= February 12722= Unique Vehicle Serial Number 231269= NOT the Chassis Number but the SIDO (Single Item Dealer Order) number. It should also have a Model number code like 27232 as well as a Paint code and a Trim code.
