Do you have a factory AMG, but no engine builder's plaque? If so, you're invited to become a member of the AMG Orphans Club International.

You guys talking about that little AMG sticker on the bottom right (passenger side) corner of the windshield?

No, the engine builder's signature plate/plaque on the engine (all current AMGs have these).

Signed up! Chappy, are you going to make this into a petition to AMG to get us plaques retroactively?

Seriously though, would it be possible to determine with a VIN who constructed the engine, by contacting AMG directly?

Got it, you're #8. Welcome!

I have no plans to approach AMG (at this time), but have been told in the past that it was "not possible" to find who our "fathers" were.

I'm just trying to celebrate/unite AMG Orphans....worldwide!!
