Hey everyone. I just bought a '66 Skylark this morning and I'm brand spankin new to the Buick world (formerly a Ford devotee). I have a really stupid question to start off. Where the heck is the VIN on this thing? I found the body tag, but where is the VIN? If you could let me know, that would be great. Feel free to verbally chastize me as well. Thanks a lot! --Eric
I dont know where it is. On my electra 84 its on the dashboard. To find it fast just check an ebay auction.
Eric, Welcome to the wonderful world of Buick :TU: The VIN is on a little plate attached to the drivers door hinge pillar, and also stamped on the engine. Should be 13 digits, starting with 443 for a V6, or 444 for a V8 Skylark. But it's also on the Body Number Plate ST 66 for the model year, and 12 the digits behind it :Smarty: All the Dutch board members will have a good laugh when they read your board name :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Well, I finally found the VIN on my registration card, but I looked in all the usual places on the car and couldn't find it anywhere. Maybe someone removed it? Good to know that there are other dutch people here too Thanks for all your help, I'll definitely be back often.
HAHA! I found it. This car has about five layers of paint on it and the VIN had all five right over it, but after chipping it away, I found it. I kinda feel like an archaeologist with this car. Every time I take sandpaper to it, a new color emerges. Thanks again for your help.
