The embossed thief-proof number is correct for a 6th series (mfd 8/1/28 to 8/20/29) but doesn't give any further information, though it's a high number and thus probably a late car.

The vehicle number, which should match the engine#, says it's 5th series Single Six which it obviously isn't so perhaps the vehicle number was mis-read, or the plate is a replica and was mis-stamped, or the plate is from another vehicle.

I'm still betting it's a 640, wheelbase should be 140 inches. What number is used for the current registration or title? And try to get the engine number.
