Thread: VIN ID number on a 32

Tweet

Just as FYI- I brought up my car to the officers when they were talking about the Rat Rod. They are all car guys & one is a buddy.
After talking to them- we followed them around looking at how cars are tagged.
Some had stamped frames, some had a vinyl sticker stuck in several locations. A buddies 37 Ford glass/TCI car has a vinyl sticker attached low on driver side dash- in similar location as a new car. Some had what looked like a home made aluminum plate that was stamped & then riveted to either firewall or frame. They were all over the map!!!! Seems like everything goes!
The coolest was a 34 Ford Roadster that had a brand new repop black Ford square plate w/ numbers at top, stamped into the tag. Said Ford Motor Co & looked very official w/ all the patent numbers below it. I believe this plate is probably more correct on a 40's car than a 32. All the cops liked the "official" look of the Ford tag. The tag was punched in all 4 corners for rivets & was aluminum & was obviously not owner stamped. I asked the owner of car who made the tag & I got that "deer in the headlights" look. Maybe because I was with several uniforms. I found out later he just bought the car & didn't know squat about the car.
Anyone have a link to the Ford tag? That tag would look very cool on my black frame. All the officers said if they pulled U over- they would run the VIN on the registration. If it came up 32 Ford & lic plate matched, end of story.

Jack- your link comes up "Invalid entry"
