66 Cuda VIN location

Sounds fishy to me, pretty convenient the the drivers door wouldn't open.

The car was obviously in an accident at some point. The post where the VIN plate should be is pretty banged up, looks like someone tried to straighten it somewhat. We WD-40'd the rusty door latch enough to get it to move enough to open, but the fender was pushed back enough that the door was binding on it. No one has had that door open for quite a while.

However, that's not to say that the owner didn't know it was missing from the last time the door did open. He may have even told the dealer that.

I'm still waiting to talk to the dealer (he was out sick yesterday). I may try to call the original owner and see what I can find out from him. (That's assuming I can find a phone number for him based on the address on a years-old registration card.
