Hi Johan and All: The 300E does also exhibit this VIN relocation. 300E number 459 has the separate painted code plate with no VIN, plus the bright finish VIN only tag on the driver's side door hinge piller. 300E number 480 has the VIN stamped in the wavy painted tag and attached to the door hinge piller. So, somewhere between these two VINs the change took place. These VINs correspond to scheduled build dates of 3/19/59 to 3/30/59. I have no idea as to why the change was made, but it was evidently deemed unacceptable, as the 300F came with the traditional painted body code plate and the spotweld attached bright finish VIN tag. Hope this helps a little. 300ly, Gil Cunningham In a message dated 6/6/2009 2:46:14 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, 055160308@xxxxxxxxxxxx writes: Hello over there. Maybe not 300 related but maybe it is. Let the answers tell.. I have here a 1959 New Yorker Convertible and there is no plate in the door pillar with the VIN #. Information I got here says that a few New Yorker Conv. was delivered without that little silver plate and has the VIN # on the little tag who contains the info about the car options and usually the SO #. On my plate here it says Serial #, not SO # About this car: It has only 40000 miles on the meter and is bought from Kentucky and it has been in the sellers ownership since 1990 and not driven very much. Its an original pink car with black leather interior, original vinyl top is still on the car and just one repaint over the years. I'm not even sure about the repaint but some paint repairs have been made anyway. An overall nice car loaded with options. So the question is: Why do I not have the "silver" tag on the A-pillar? There's absolutely NO signs that there have ever been any plate there. Does this also goes on some 300-E Conv. or does anybody knows anything about this matter???? Maybe it also goes on other Mopar cars from this year? Looking forward for some answers from my 300 friends. Johan. 300-G Conv. Batmanblack and smoking tires..
