Remove paint from door pillar VIN sticker.

I am not aware of door stickers with a VIN being ever used. The door sticker used was the "12V" sticker, that noted that the electrical system was 12V instead of 6V used until 1967. You can rivet the body VIN tags on their original location, behind the spare wheel, bellow the tank. You will be able to see the 2 holes for the rivets, or another tag with a non-matching VIN, which you have to remove. Check that the body VIN tag matched the frame VIN (on the tunnel under the back seat).

Au contraire, Billy....

My '74 SB has a door jamb sticker which states the vehicle complies with US DOT safety standards published as of August '73. (Birth certificate shows an Oct. '73 build date.) That sticker has die-cut holes of about 0.75mm diameter forming dot-matrix style VIN numerals.

Of course, if that were the sticker Andrew if asking about, there'd be indentations and he'd be able to read the VIN in spite of the paint.

Anyway, in an inspection, the frame VIN (under the back seat) has to match the body VIN (behind the spare tire) and the title VIN. If there was a door sticker with the VIN, then this doesn't mean much and not checked in an inspection.

There is no tranny or engine VIN. The engine has it's own S/N which appears on the vehicle's papers, the tranny has it's own S/N too, but is not used anyehrere.
