Re: VIN Plate Decode

I concur that the VIN plate appears genuine; however what about the rivets? If the rivets are to hold the VIN to the door jam, then it stands to reason that the plate POSSIBLY was not intended for the car in question if a switch took place somewhere in the past.

Also, as the cars left the factory in 55-56, how would a typical VIN plate been affixed to the door jam? Is it the same as pictured above?

To OD, anti-theft number documentation would have been great information source had it survived.
