Vin

I Realize That You Find Your Vin In The Door Jamb, But What If The Door Was Swaped Some Time In It's Life? The Jamb On My Truck Says It Was New Lime Green And Had A 240 6cyl, When (at Least Now) It Is Black/white And Has A 360 Or A 390 (havent Figured Out Which One Yet) With A 4bbl Intake? Is There Another Place To Look For Any Other Id's????????

Look at the frame on the pass. side right below the alternator. The vin will be stamped there. Good luck.

The VIN that your truck is registered with will have the engine size, and factory location where it was built. Compare that number with the VIN on the door. Look under the front seat for the original color.

I'm having the same problem. The title has one VIN and the door has another. I looked on the frsme on the Passenger side of the engine compartment and didn't see any stampings. The truck is a 72 F250 4x4, "high boy" supposedly.

It's not under the alt, it's under the cab by the firewall.
