i recently found 2 convertibles for sale,a 1960 & 1955 in reasonable condition. However when I checked the vin numbers against the information published in the CLC self starter booklet, I am left a little confused. I noticed on both cars the letter F was omitted from the vin number. For example the 60 convertible hand a vin number 60704.... Likewise the 55 convertible had a vin number 55622.... I would have thought the vin number should have been 60F04... and 55622... Could some knowledgable person please explain the reason for this?
The reason why i check the vin numbers is to make sure the cars did not start life with the letter G in the serial number!
thanks
Where did you find these numbers?

if you look at the following Ebay item number (4516323793) this 1955 convertible has the Vin listed as 556227233. Likewise the 1960 convertible i looked at, has the vin listed on the title as 607043076.
Are these vin numbers the real deal?

Well I can tell you the title on my 60 has the VIN listed as 60A0902xx and was gotten from the plastic tab on the drivers door jam.
