[Frankjr]

Hello i am sure you were asked 100 times before but i can't find the VIN Numbers on my 6519 Cadillac . I looked on the frame and on the motor,the book i have says it would be found on the last 2 cylinders parrell to the firewall, if this is correct? Thanks Frank Santoro Jr

Hello Frank Jr.

Wonderful vehicle you have and rare. I attempted to reach you by phone to walk you to your vehicle identification number but I had a nice conversation with a guy that had a 6019S. I think your number should be on the top of the frame when you stand in front of your driver side wheel to look down on the frame. Apply some flour on the frame to enhance the numbers and use a flashlight to illuminate the area. If you have any questions or you need assistance call me.313-804-0276. Thanks Chuck

Frank,
That's a nice offer from Chuck. What year is your car? 37 or 38? That makes a big difference on the frame #'s.

Hello the Cadillac is a 1938 6519 all stock except for the exhaust system, it has a divider with slideing glass 5 passenger.I just bought it last week and i will try to restore it.
I also have a 1951 Cadillac 2 dr coupe i am restoreing that i use to drive around town.I think this one has a lot more class and i always wanted a 1938.Since i signed up for CLC
i have got nothing but good sound advice.I have many questions but will take one at a time.I plan to call Chuck as soon as i can,if it was not for guys like him and other members
of CLC it would be impossibe to restore a classic like this car.Thanks for all the help.Frank Santoro Jr

Frank,
Glad you found the #. The engine # did match when the car was new. Did you find it??
