need help w/ vin plate location.

[manimal]

I have a friend that wants to sell me a 1973 crewcab 3/4t 2wd. It has been repainted and the vin tag removed for paint by the owner before him. I am not sure "where" this thing goes. I am needing a pic of how/where the vin tag is located on a 73-77(preferably '73) crewcab. I want to use the body one my dually crewcab. Thanks for any help.

The tag goes on the drivers door jam near the striker bolt. The vin will also be stamped on the frame near the steering box. The sticker in the glove box will also have the vin.

You should be aware in most states it is illegal to reattach a serial plate.......

it's not illegal to reattach it due to restoring it but just to fraud lol. but i think the proper way is to have a state trooper come out and inspect it before and after its removed

Anyone who would do such a thing deserves to get smacked.

That sounds about right.
Don't forget to use stainless rivets and file the heads to give that nice rosebud look before you pop them.

What a racket. 20 bucks!  Yeesh

They are $12 for a pair plus $2 shipping.  http://trimtags.com/rivets.html

They don't have the look I remember.

 I thought the outside edge of the ones on my 79 were kinda flower shaped.
