chassis number location
The Australian produced Chevrolet CMPs all had the number stamped on the left chassis rail, generally between the front spring hangars but sometimes further back.
Ford were less precise about location, but usually it was adjacent to the right engine mount on the top surface, and sometimes on the right vertical face of the chassis rail in roughly the same place. Once the cab and splash panels are in position the top chassis rail is impossible to see in any case on a Ford. Unlike the Chevrolet where the chassis number contained a code describing the chassis type Ford used the engine number which was also stamped on the gearbox bell housing. Having said all that there have been Ford chassis where I could not locate a number at all.
