After I went to get the car inspected I started thinking......Were in the hell is the vin number at on this piece of shit. Its a Bel-Air so its not on the A pillar. Does anyone know where it is? Or can I just not prove I own my car.

If it's the original engine, it'll be on that. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

My (now FatHack's) VIN was on the a pillar, and I think somewhere else under the hood.

Sorry can't be more help.

Well 50-52 the Bel-Air is the same as a convertible. Its not the original engine. No one has ever questioned me about the vin. But I'd like to be able to prove I own my car if I had to.

On a 50 -52 Bel Air the Vin tag is on the left door pillar between the upper & lower door hinges. That is where it is on my 51 Bel Air. On coupes & sedans it's higher on the same post, next to the windshield. The tag on the top of the firewall on the pass side is not for registration purposes, it's just body style, color & trim info.

You going to remove the tag so you can abandon that piece
of shit? If I were you I wouldn't fess up to owning it. http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif http://www.jalopyjournal.com/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Did you get the steering arm fixed yet or are you coming up anyway?

I've got a '53 hardtop and it's on the a pillar on the driver's side. The tag on the passenger side on top the firewall is just the body, paint, trim tag.

I've got a 54 chevy belaire, and the only place I ever was able to find it was on the title
