Default Re: Vin number location

The serial number for Ford Model As is stamped on a pad on the left side of the engine above the water inlet. That is the ONLY place it is located.
For some reason Ford also decided to stamp the same number on the frame and hidden by the body. MOST but not all cars got stamped. This only documents which engine was installed - it was not intended to be the serial number for registration purposes - or it would have been visible.
States can assign a number to a car they are unable to determine the correct serial number or VIN. These are AIN - Assigned Identification Number and generally start with the 2 character code for the issuing state.
