1960 Pick up VIN location
I know there have been some posts about this, but I was wondering if anyone had some new insight...
The kick panel plate, as far as I know is not the VIN plate, but the ratings plate.
Here's my story:
So, I tried to get a title for my truck and part of that process is taking the vehicle to the sheriff office vehicle theft unit and they give you a forum so you can complete the process.
They weren't accepting the door frame plate with the serial number and wanted the vin from the chassis, which they believe to be on the drivers side on the top of the frame rail, just in front of the rear cab mount. So, since I might be replacing the cab anyways, I cut open the floor to expose that part of the frame and there was nothing there.
There was nothing that I could see on the front part of the frame (horns? area).
From what I've read, Chevys may have had these stampings on the frame, but the GMC's didn't, especially my year of truck, 1960.
Any thoughts on this?
