Hello 300'ly to all! The last VIN of the C was 3N573251, since only 2251 were built with the VIN # starting at 1000. The 3NE57#### is for the engine, and I have been lead to believe that there were at least 16 extra engines produced of the '57 392 Hemi that did not go into vehicles.

Unless they skipped some numbers, the VIN of the last one would have been 3N573252. The referenced VIN is most likely the engine number stamped on the block--as evidenced by the "E" in the string. VIN's and S/N's of these early cars did not match and it is likely some additional replacement engines were built along the way.
