It's definitely a 1986 3 door Sierra buts thats as far as I can say from just the number.

Do you have access to the VIN plate?

These are my VIN plates, so yours should look identical to these with the exception of the colour.
I can see a very obvious difference between yours and mine straight away in the 4th box down on the silver plate. Mine says 1700, yours is N1H1L, and also the vslue in the 'Type' box is different.
Dunno what those refer to, but I'm sure someone will.

the 1700 figure is gross weight and the same figure in the second box, or the letters and no figure just means it's not type approved for towing.

Send me your email address by PM and I will send you the breakdown information for the plates. I did post it on here a while ago but had to take it down under the threat of being sued. Go figure.
Cheers David
