What is the sequence for apply a VIN on a 69 Camaro? Are the hidden vins stamped before the visual vin is attached to the dash/firewall area,or are they stamped after? Would the answer to this question determine if a hidden vin is the first or second vin applied and therefore determining which part of the car rightfully owns the number.
On full frame cars such as Olds 442 the vin is stamped on the frame in a variety of locations,all usually not visible unless the body gets removed. In the case of my 71 W30 convert the stamp reads 1M197xxx and I only saw it on the side of the frame rail below the drivers door. I never saw any other hidden vins on that body of any of the other 5 Oldsmobiles I have restored. Have Chevelle owners found vins stamped on the body? Tracker1 and myself will be discussing this at great lengths over a beer in a few weeks. When newfies get together.. world problems get resolved. Paul
