VIN question

The 48 COE I hauled home has the ID plate on the glovebox door but also has one on the passenger side firewall. Did all trucks of this vintage have that? I always thought the one in the glovebox was the only one. Both plates have the VIN that matches the title.

In case you were curious, it's a Data plate on the firewall and a Rating plate on the glovebox door.

Standard equipment.

Nice truck btw!
