VIN number?
I recently bought a 61 SWB stepside with good title, however I was not sure the vin matched the title since the driver door had been changed. I found the frame stamp by the front axle and it had a letter and the last 6 digits of the vin on the title. Is that all they stamp or do they usually have the first part as well- for example f10J was missing and D -with the other 6 digits were on the frame? Also were can you get the information to decode your vin #? Thanks in advance

VIN number?
Kevin, It all should be there, sometimes it's just hard to see. Try Jon's site, it should have what you need. It is also linked through my FTE site.

VIN number?
I had the same problem with my 64 F100, in order to legaly impor it into Mexico I needed the frame VIN. Besides the one in the frame close to the front axle, there is a second VIN on the same frame but its under the cab, some times the numbers are hard to read but it should start like *F10.
Get your self a wire brush to clean it up, If you go with a sand paper you may loss what you already have.
Good luck and keep us updated.
