It definitely left the factory as a GT V6, 3-litre, manual. The code JE1572 means that it's a V6, Manual, serial 1572, this is the engine number. Can be confirmed by checking the flat section at the back of the block on the drivers side. The delete items mean that the car wasn't fitted with those additional items when it left the factory.. PM me if you want a complete breakdown of the 11 character Chassis number, VINs weren't introduced until 1981 and are a 17 character code, but that's another story. Cheers, Terry
