So,
I did find a slightly better method for the Mexico cars.
https://www.placaapi.mx/
This website has an API that takes your username (you have to make an account) and a license plate number and it will return information regarding that car.
I skimmed through their
documentation PDF (CTRL+F lol) and found the section on Mexico. Which gives the endpoint/URL for the Mexico API:
https://www.placaapi.mx/api/reg.asmx?op=CheckMexico
Since I found
#067 on Instagram, and the person took a nice clear video of the plate:
HUK 554 A
Inputting that (HUK554A) into the RegistrationNumber field on the CheckMexico URL with my username returned this data:
Code:
<Vehicle xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns="http://regcheck.org.uk">

<vehicleData>
<Description>GENERAL MOTORS DE MEXICO SDE R CAMARO Z 2 PUERTAS 8 CIL 5 PAS</Description>

And thankfully, the VIN is included in this data.
The downside is only 10 free credits so I have 9 left but it's like $0.20 per check and that's nothing if it means a closer chance of finding all 350.
My request to anyone wanting to assist, if you see a Mexico ZL1 Collector Edition and it has a plate, please link it here or post the plate/PM the plate to me if possible. It would be greatly appreciated
