Hello and thanks in advance for any insight on this question.
I am considering the purchase of a 1962 FI Corvette. The car does not have a VIN tag on the steering column, though the owner states that the VIN on the title matches that on the RF block and that the date codes put the engine build about a week before the chasis.
My questions:
For a '62 would the full or composite VIN be on the pad (my understanding is that it would only be the composite)?
Where on the frame would I look to find another set of stampings?
Can this car be titled and insured without a VIN on the column?
How much does this detract from value?
Can a reproduction or replacement VIN tag be issued?
Thanks again for any help.
