Since I'm not overly versed in 50's Fords or before... I am curious about VIN number locations.....

the two previous cars I was looking at didn't pan out, but found another 2 for one deal, near by... this time both 2 door cars.

one of the cars that is a parts car doesn't have a VIN number plate (according to owner- haven't seen them yet), he got the car from original owner. Apparently, the original owners kid started to fix it up and apparently removed it and about everything else on the car, but glass and grill and most of the body is good.
what I am curious about is... in 54, is the VIN anywhere else on the car/frame?

Thanks
 
The vin number is the same as the chassis number. You should be able to find the chassis number on the right front chassis leg just under the the battery box. So long as it hasn't been corroded by the battery acid you should be able to scrape it and find it.
It is only Oz cars that have body number stamped on the firewall, but even those have the number stamped in the same position on the chassis.
 
In Illinois, call the Secretary of State police and tell them the story you wrote. They have a method or issuing a new number and will affix it to your car in the left door jamb.
