Re: [FWDLK] Missing VIN Tags

[Dave Grove Grove Automotive <groveautomotive@xxxxxx>]

Yes, I believe there has always been another VIN somewhere.  I found one on
my 59 Plymouth on the LR frame rail rear of the wheel.  Was grinding down to
some bare metal to weld on a class III hitch (hey, it was 1973, give me a
break!), and there it was.  Not there now though, - the hitch framework was
welded right over it!

(does that mean I can make it a 300 now? NukNuk ;-)
