I own a 1935 Sedan Delivery that I purchased many years ago. It is and has been stored in another state for many years. So the car is not at my fingertips. If it were, I could answer my question without posting this note.

In reviewing the VIN on the title, and the VIN on the title receipt, I noticed that they are not the same.

The VIN on the title reads: 78D3xxx

The VIN on the title receipt reads: 7803xxx

Is there a standard format for the VIN that would allow someone in the know to confirm for me whether the third character in the VIN for my car should be:

(1) the letter "D" or

(2) the letter "O" or

(3) the numeral zero "0"?

Thank you in advance for any assistance that you might be able to provide.
