36 ford data plate vin# questions

[wantonebad70]

Hey guys was looking at a nice 36 ford
the guy changed the frame out from a 36 to a 39.
From what i gathered on the internet 36 fords don't have a data plate they go by the frame numbers.
what happens if it dosn't match or you get a custom frame.

frames were the same 35-40 check Macs Auto Lockport NY they have new replacement plates , if I remember the cars were stamped on frame with motor num or visa versa . someone there will know .

I had the same problem with my 38 Ford sedan.....I bought a universal VIN tag from Honest Charlie's booth at a swap meet, had the original VIN engraved in it...riveted to the frame and Florida was happy with that. Every state is different....don't ask the DMV what to do...ask some people at a local car show what they did...works way better that way....good luck
