Default 13 digit VIN?

How does anyone find any information on a car that had a 13 digit VIN? I had a '74. Everything I look up asks for the "16" digit VIN. There has to be a way. What if a car of that vintage is stolen, and the police need the VIN to identify the car? I went down to my local police station and they put in my 13 digit VIN and came up with nothing. I put the 13 digit VIN in Carfax, and it wouldn't accept it. What do you guys do?

what exactly are you trying to find out based upon the VIN?
if the car was never reported stolen there is no reason your local police would find it listed.
