Rod,

When I purchased my '32 Standard Cpe from Texas, I knew there might be an issue finding the VIN. I purchased an early Ford dataplate from Midwest Early Ford Store in Springfield, OH that has a blank box on it. I then took the dataplate to an office supply store and had them laser cut the VIN on it. I then installed it in place of the original dataplate on the firewall. Took the car to be inspected and had no problem what-so-ever. You can then switch the dataplates back....if you are so inclined to do so. Worked for me!

Good luck,
Pat
