Chassis VIN stamping P.I. work...

 

On C1 frames, VIN #'s were stamped on the drivers side, just across from the "X" frame

57 Chassis' were built/stamped at the A.O. Smith plant in Wisconsin


Rubber "pads" were placed in several locations, before the body was placed on the frame.


The VIN# should be in the approx. location of this pad.

Nothing there??


Starting to show up...


There it is!  And it matches the VIN.  ; )

A close-up of the last digit...a "2"
