VIN Stamp Size

1st Official Post

    I recently had the opportunity to see a bare block (1965, Dearborn). The stamped VIN number on the block looked bigger (approx. 1/4") than the other date stamps on the block (3/16"). Is that correct?

    The date stamps are done at the engine plant and not at the same time as the VIN. AFAIK the VIN stamp is done at the vehicle assembly plant, in your case, Dearborn.
