VIN on frame?

Where is the VIN on my 76' F150 2wd LB frame? I am looking for the one that is stamped on the frame. Not the one on the cab.

They say that the VIN is right next to the alternator on the frame rail. If you find it, congratulations. I've looked and never found mine.

There's also a VIN on the top of the frame rail, directly below the drivers seat.

Hope this helps.

Jim

It was there. A little sanding and some paint thinner raised it. I was very happy to find it.
the title was junked by mistake. A local junkyard got a 76' F250 in that had one of my old doors that I had thrown out. I am blind and did not know the vin was on the drivers door from the factory. What the hell was Ford thinking? Anyway I have to go to CHP to have the VIN taken from the frame, before DMV will give my smog exempt title back.
