124379L507447

L507447 was final assembled on or about November 7, 1968. Car has an 11B body tag, second week November 1968. Data on the tag does not compare with other L507xxx VINs. The VIN tag is attached with common pop rivets due to dash top replacement.

One or both tags are not original to the car; hidden VINs may not match.

Where is the hidden VIN located?

One is located on the passenger side inside the cowl vent area. Look down into the cowl area beneath the cowl panel louvers and above the heater box.
