vin number decoding

I have a 1951 f-1, I am trying to decode the vin number and am thinking that I may have a big problem...
On the title the number is nine digits....

Your missing the F1 at the beginning. Check the frame for the correct number.

We've heard this pattern more than a few times. Seems some states recorded just the latter digits/letters omitting the prefix of the VIN. Stu
