Is the Vin # stamped on the frame somewhere on a 1978 F250?
I think my cab has been changed at some point in its life and would like to find out one way or another.

The number can be stamped anywhere along the top of the pass side framerail from the rad support all the way back under the cab. I think the location depends a lot on what was closest to the guy with the stamp when he approached the assy line.
