    1960 VIN tag

    I have just located a 1960 fuelie barn find. Original paint, interior and drivetrain. It was last registered and driven in 1983. A very important part is missing, the Vin tag. If this car checks out with the frame stamp and an expert verifies the engine pad, then what? I cant' even see where the tag was originally spot welded to the column. Does anyone make a replacement Vin tag and install it like the original and also pass judging? Thank you for any advice.

    Did you look at the drivers door jamb? What's the serial #? The first 1500 or so 1960's had the VIN tag in the door jamb.

      Nothing on the door jamb.

        What is the VIN of this car? You can delete the last digit if revealing the VIN is a concern. Knowing the VIN will help determine where the VIN plate "should be" (on steering column or in door jam). Look for indications that the VIN tag was either spot welded to the steering column (and is not longer there) or was attached to driver's door jam area with two screws.

            Assuming it should be on the steering column, it is very common to loose the VIN. Especially with fuel cars because of the air cleaner and how you remove and install the dip stick. Don H.
