Re: VIN / trunk stamping?

[Bill Watson <wwatson6@xxxxxxx>]

That number is the Shipping Order Number that also appears on the data tag 
on the driver's side inner fender.

It is usually prefixed by a code for the assembly plant and model year. 
The VIN was not stamped on unibody cars prior to 1968.
