On a 1947 Ford Sedan, the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) wasn't a standardized 17-character alphanumeric code like it is today. Instead, it was a much simpler identification number, often stamped on the
dash, usually on the driver's side. It might also be found on the
firewall or on a
metal plate affixed to the body somewhere. However, its location wasn't consistently placed across all 1947 Ford Sedans.
You'll need to carefully inspect these areas to locate it. The number itself will likely be shorter and less complex than modern VINs.
