Trying to get this panel purchased, I went out today to get the VIN number and got what i think is it. I took it to the tag office to have it checked and they said that it is not a good number.
I think these 6 digits would be precede by 20 or 21?
The Chassis#193055 (behind the seat, passengers side)
The VIN#2054XX (under the brass plate in the engine compartment) |

The lower one is the correct VIN. October 56. They dropped the 20- before January 56.

VIN number is the last one produced that month.
The number behind the seat is an internal factory number, and doesn't correspond to anything. Disregard it. |

| The number behind the seat is nothing. the number in the engine bay is the correct vin. you may have to show them that the number IS the vin with no 20- in front. Here in Arkansas they tried to title my old vw's with 0000's until they filled what the system wanted. I took a printout showing correct vin's per year and they corrected them. |
