Vette(s): 1971 convertible,375 HP 350ci,Muncie 4-speed,Edelbrock aluminum heads and RPM air-gap manifold,HEI distrubiter - old school mechanical tach drive. LOUD side exhaust!
The VIN is stamped on the engine (back left or right side, can't remember which). The transmission also has the VIN stamped on it (the muncie 4 speed has them on the right side, not sure about auto trans). Not sure about the read end - I don't think it has the VIN stamped on it. Others will chime in on that. Another item that has the VIN is the frame - usually on teh top of the hump by the left rear wheel.

Vette(s): 1970 T-Top350/350hp numbers matching 4 speed. It's a mess and 1970 Convertible 4 speed.
OK the vin on the block is front of the head passenger side. The automatic is lower on the side driver side. The rear end does not have a vin but you can tell what gears you have by the numbers they are located underneth front bottom.
