2 places on the frame, if you were seated in the car, the number is stamped just below where you sit on drivers side frame, Not viewable with body on.
#2 position on drivers side, right in front of the rear wheelwell body mount on top of the frame, this number is visible with body on, with a mirror.

Hi s69,
Even with the body on.
With the body off also about in line with the drivers butt on the rail.
Regards,

And a good bit of luck...including the possibility of divine guidance.

Hi,
The large 'machine' that was used to make the stamps in the frame rails was so powerful that it often left a depression in the rail's surface the length and width of the entire stamp.
Sometimes feeling for that depression with your fingers can be the first clue to locating the stamped information.
Regards,
Alan
