P15 frame number question

[Daliant.]

I cant locate the V.I.N. that should be stamped on the driver side frame rail. I know its supposed to be near the kick up over the axle but all I can find is LP15L stamped in about 1/2" tall letters which I'm assuming is the just part number for the frame rail because the passenger side is stamped P15R. Anyone have a picture that shows the the size of the letters? Is it possable that the frame was never stamped or maybe stamped in another location,top of the rail maybe?

mine was just about dead center of the top of the arch..and yes there is also a part number on the frame

I may be wrong but I thought the number stamped on the frame rail is the engine number. If so then on your car it should start with P15. I don't think you will find a VIN (serial number) on the frame rail.

Here are a couple pics from my '38......first are the #'s-should be the same as the engine# without the model#...P6 in my case, second is the size-just over 1/4". If the engine# & frame# don't match-one has been changed, most likely the engine. It was located on the drivers side outside about 2" behind the gas tank cross member (as seen in 1st pic)...or about 1/2 way between the rear axle & rear spring shackle.

You will NOT find a VIN number on the frame - only the engine number.

Thanks, those pics helped.
