Re: 62-65 VIN



Any number stamping on the radiator support area and back near the axle on a 1962-1965 is not the vin number.

I'd also like to see a verified second VIN stamped somewhere by the factory on a 62/65. Chrysler did not officially do that in 1962-1965, as far as any evidence turned up so far that I am aware of existing.

Thanks,
Gary H.
