1962 Cadillac SERIES 62 vin

[FatParrot]

I don't know if I have this in the right board, but I was wondering if anyone knew where the vin is on a 62 Caddy? I thought they were by the radiator support but cant find it....Thanks

I know it's been a while since you posted this question but did you ever find the vin# on your 62 caddy? I just went to purchase and pick up a 62 Cadillac, 62 series convertible and didn't consummate the transaction because I couldn't find a vin number on the car to match up with the title. Thanks, Mark

Top of frame rail or cross member driver's side of radiator. It's simply stamped into the metal so often dirt or rust can obscure it. Try some Gumout and a good bright light like one of the 100 bazillion candle-power jobs. Otherwise, left side of the engine block right about the drainpan roughly halfway between the front and back (the gumout) unless the engine has been switched. The format is generally "62F112411" Year, model, serial. The plate on the cowl usually doesn't have the VIN. VIN's weren't the big then like they are today; kind of like locking steering wheels, locking gear shifts, locking hoods you get the idea.

They found it and it matches the title. The car is on its way as I write this. I'll be a new owner of my first Caddy, a 1962, 62 series convertible. Thanks much for your help!
