Chassis number - 109

[Richard Elson]

I just got my frame powder coated and noticed the serial number on the chassis. I assume it is the same number as on the firewall plate. Can you tell which suffix it is by the serial number? It is 26402157a. How about the year of the vehicle? All I have been able to get is that it is a 11a made in the 60's.

That is a very neat site.

I assume since you buy only one type of new frame that my suffix A (62' or 63') frame will do me fine on my 1970 body. Kind of late anyway as I just spent 750 bucks powdercoating it.

Thanks for the link.
