Thank you
Will try tomorrow after work.

Sorry, wrong info. I own an 86 Ford truck, VIN is on the body. Not on the dash pad. The dash pad has a cut out so you can see the VIN through the windshield.

I can take a photo in the daylight so you will believe me.

How much do they charge for the service?

Sounds like $350

Nanket, ok so I was wrong on the 80's Ford's. But in the 70's most trucks had tags held on the door jamb by regular rivets or even just screws.

Many Ford and Ih had the tag on the door itself, ever replace a rusty door?

60's Mustang had a tag that was often moved due to damaged spring towers iirc.

Now you know better than to ask a question about a vin tag on Moparts !

You cant afford to fix a vin tag and you bought an E body. You should just sell it (they are not cheap cars) after you fix the tag because nobody will want it with a damage tag.

I worked at a Chrysler dealer and a lady bought a new dash for her 95 Dodge pick up....guess where the vin plate is riveted too. I called the Mo State Highway patrol and talked with the main vehicle inspector. Explained the situation with the dash replacement and vin being attached to the plastic dash and what was the proper legal thing to do with the vin plate. I was told in no way shape or form was anybody allowed to reattach that plate back to the vehicle. There is a form to fill out explaining why the vin was removed, don't you dare drill the rivits, then the vehicle has to be inspected by the highway patrol. The original vin plate is confiscated and destroyed and a new state issued vin is applied by the officer. Then you have to re title the vehicle at the DMV. It's the most stupid thing I've ever heard but that is how Missouri does it. I don't know why an officer can't just reattach the original vin plate other than the state can jack you for a bunch of money. And for those that like to live dangerously...it's a felony to remove the vin and reattach it.

VIN issues have everyone involved walking on eggs because nobody wants to be the one who OK's a stolen car. I worked at a Ford dealership in the 1980's and we sold a new Thunderbird with an incorrect VIN plate. It was a project to correct the factory mistake. The Service Manager, Ford regional rep (who brought a new VIN tag), a glass man (to R&R the windshield), and several witnesses had to be there, plus pictures were taken and lots of forms were filled-out.
