Hole in the dash for the choke cable...
Brackets on the floorpan for the E brake cable re-route..
Screw holes on the drivers inner fender for the heater hose brackets
Firewall brake line/wiring harness re-routed
Decal in the glovebox

My suggestion? Hire an expert, pre 1966 cars are NOT easy to document, a few hints from a web forum will not arm you with what it really takes.

I thought all of the serial numbers are listed in the Darrel Davis books? If so then it's easy - right --- shruggy

Yeah, the DD book would be the first place to look.

Yes, the DD book is definitely the best place to refer to. That said, not all Max Wedge car VINS are in his books.

The bigger concern, a LOT of MW and early Hemi cars were race cars that have been hacked up and re-bodied over the years. You'll need to know a lot more than just finding the VIN# in the DD book to verify the car, but it's a good place to start. twocents

And if it's never been re bodied there should be the second set of emergency brake cable brackets welded to the floor pan or at least an indication that they were there at one time.
