On a 61 coupe 300 the number behind the heater box firewall side is the body number so number
4 digits of it matches the data plate special order number which corresponds to the vin number on the factory build ibm card at the top and the metal tag on the drivers doorpost.The state of nc told me that number was the second location of vin which in my case was not true but did prove that the body and vin tag were married together at the factory
Right, I realized a little bit ago it's the sequence number on the data plate, not the VIN.Thanks!--On Sun, Sep 29, 2024, 12:49 PM Peter Scherer <caprockconnections@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:Not sure if this is mentioned somewhere, but I'm working on a 1961 New Yorker station wagon and found a stamping of the VIN number above the heater blower motor in the engine bay.--Is this a common location for 1961 cars? I don't recall it on the G coupe I was working on last year. It would be totally hidden by the heater box.-Peter
