Shouldn't there be a vin plate there ? I would like to title this car but without a vin plate I'm afraid that it is a lost cause. Is there any other place that the vin number will be stamped , maybe on the frame somewhere or ??? I need the last 6 numbers of the vin which is the production serial number . Thanks in advance.

Just to educate you..........I purchased my 1967 GTO in Florida. The VIN number on the registration was one digit short as compared to the VIN plate in the door jamb. I made the seller correct the VIN number on the registration before I purchased the car. Good thing, in the state of Connecticut where I reside, you have to bring your classic car in to the Motor Vehicle Office to have the VIN number verified. You may not be able to do that if the dashboard VIN plate is missing. Also, if the VIN number has disappered, I would probably not buy the car for fear that it isn't a GTO, but simply a "tribute car" or "cloned" GTO, neither of which is worth what a real "242..." GTO is worth. Just my two cents.........Good luck.
