It is located below the lower edge of the firewall. Mine is a 10 digit number with a star stamped in front of the first number and two stars stamped right behind the last number. This number is also used as the VIN number on the Title of the car by the Florida DMV. If you buy a Merc check both locations for the same number.
If you own a 49-51 Mercury you must buy these two books. Prices vary so shop around.
