Re: [FWDLK] 58 Plymouth Question

[Dave Grove -- Grove Automotive <dave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

About this "data plate" stuff, - my '59 Sport Fury has NO tag on the
doorpost.  Two holes, - but it doesn't look like anything was ever there.
There is a plate on the firewall, which does contain the VIN, - above the
brake booster, on the (somewhat) "horizontal" surface sort of under the rear
edge of the hood.
I did find the VIN stamped into the LR frame rail during a trailer hitch
installation some years ago, - it is long gone now though, - had to weld
right over the top of it to mount the hitch.
(hope that firewall plate never falls off!)

Regards,
DaveG.
