Re: IML: 1940 Windsor

Hi

 

I ran into this early on with my 1955 Imperial here in California. I later learned that the frame number was just that and did not match the car. Also the engine number did not match the car or the frame and never did. I got the build info from Chrysler with the different numbers that my car was built with and they match the build and are all different (three different numbers). If you are trying to title the car find the number that matches the title and find someone that will be OK with that. Again, this is correct for 1955.

"Have just purchased a 1940 Chryler Windsor 4 dr and am trying to locate the vehicle identification number on THE FRAME. Have found the plate on the passenger front door jamb. I need to locate the one stamped into the frame so that the local department of motor vehicles can inspect and verify same for title and registration. Can anyone be of help ? Appreciate it."
