I have a ex race car body shell here and the only VIN is the one on the inner guard area. I have got all bar the fifth digit. I have tried pencil rubbing/sanding but I still can't make it out.Looks like 4742?19063
Any help you be great (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)    |

If it still has the original dash top (doesn't look like it in the pic) the number is sometimes hand written under this panel.

QUOTE(bretth @ Mar 27 2017, 08:38 AM)  If it still has the original dash top (doesn't look like it in the pic) the number is sometimes hand written under this panel. That number is usually the chassis number not the VIN and even it isn't always accurate. It is supposed to match the chassis number in the trunk (depending on MY). Some people have reported names written on that piece (usually a woman's name) instead of the chassis number. PS: RHD - very cool modification. |
