HELP!!!!!

I just recently bought (2) 1951 F1 & (1) 1948 F1. I'm having trouble identifying the VIN number vs what is stamped on the data plate in the glove compartment any helpful tips of where the actual VIN number is instead of the engine number would be much appreciative. I've also looked on both frame rails in the engine compartment. and still nothing

The serial number is located in only ONE place on the frame. It is on the passenger side close to the motor mount, between the radiator and the axle.

Trying to get some last minute stuff done before hand surgery next week. Yard work and Christmas decorations getting in the way. Will be out of town for the weekend. Hoping to finish the steering and brake lines to m/cylinder before next Wednesday. Don't think I am going to make it. What I don't get done will wait until late January when I will have full use of my right hand again.

We'll have to get together for lunch before Christmas.
I will be out of town until 12/19.

Take Care

Dan
