GTD VIN Code

Can anyone break the VIN code for the GTD? I am curious if we can tell what prior quantity of Chassi were built by GTD before mine came off the line, so to speak. And any other details which may be hidden in the number.
The VIN on the frame is GTD40012020037099. It is one of the last cars, if not THE very last car Ray did.
thx

The code is quite simple.
The first 2 characters - '40' are obvious.
The next 5 - '01202' - is the area code for Poole, where the GTD factory was.
The last 2 - '99' is the year of manufacture.
The remaining characters - '00370' is the serial number.
Thus your chassis is a GT40, built in Poole, number 370, in 1999.

The number I can find on my GTD is "19589". Does this mean manufactured in '89 as 195th chassis?

On the square section chassis tube above the steering rack. Sometimes this has been panelled over. Mine also has it stamped into the angle section right at the back of the car - can be seen from the rear down low.
Cheers
