Avtocod managed to return this plate despite being a commercial plate... Looks like it has a JDM chassis number rather than the 17-digit VIN?

Must've had a steering conversion done on it as main and the Platemania photo looks like it's LHD rather than RHD :think:

You can see the nozzles for where the RHD wipers went (?)

Not JDM, all the placement are corrected for LHD exports.

But the Coaster was never sold in left hand drive to my knowledge? And it's got a Japanese chassis number.

Coasters have cab doors only on the driver's side. This one has the cab door on the left.

They exports a ton of LHD model, Coaster are really popular.

Anyone have access to the unredacted chassis number? A quick run to ToyoDIY with it would settle the question of which market it came from?

Unfortunately vin01 seems to deny access to chassis numbers :/

But if it has a chassis number, wouldn't that make it, well, JDM as said before?

Yes (and I still lean towards a JDM with steering conversion given the location)... But Toyotas adopted the 17-digit VIN later than most other places IIRC, as there were some Chilean Toyotas with non-VINs that I came across on IMCDB; which is why a full chassis would certainly help settle this debate.

As I said, it has an LHD bodyshell with the driver's door on the left.
