Just purchased one and am having a hard time finding out much about it. Must be pretty rare or more would pop up on my internet searches. I have learned that they had the same drivetrain, chassis and most of the interior as the 1955 Chevy. Mine is yellow and white with a V-8 (265 CI I guess) automatic trans a...

I know the tag informations are in the engine bay. But, in Belgium, they need to find this number engraved in the metal of the frame or the body. Can I find the VIN on the frame of a '57? Or have I to burn it?
