Question vin location

hey all, been a while

i finally pulled fenders looking for the real vin of my car. the visible one says its a i6 coupe. the p/s hidden one says its a 65 c code coupe.

there's supposed to be a hidden one on the d/s but i cant find it anywhere. anyone know the exact location on a 65/66 car????

thanks!

Here's where to look. There was some variation, since they were stamped by Ford line workers. I have seen missing, extra, double-stamp, errors, etc.

Also your car is old it could have been hit in the front and they cut the front end off a coupe for parts.

andrew right on as usual.

both d/s visible and p/s hidden vins were from coupes but different ones - a 66 i6 and a 65 c code. maybe smacked twice?

i was hoping to find the 3rd vin hidden on the d/s but its not there at all. i'm gunna rub a bit more paint off and hope its still there somewhere.
