No '32 engine number (aka serial number or vin) exceeded seven digits after the prefix and even then, only if built with a four-cylinder engine as the number series began 5000001. In the case of '32 V-8 engine numbers (those produced in the U.S.), no number exceeded six digits after the prefix and none had a six digit number beginning with a number higher than "2".

It is, therefore, highly unlikely that you will find your number 18MR18113xxx stamped anywhere on the frame and if you do, it will not have been placed there by Ford when the car was manufactured.
