Can someone give me a quick answer on where the Chassis ID for a BE is to be found? I thought is was inside the engine compartment on one of the inner fenders is it not?

Anyone on line right now who can give a quick answer.

In that location you should see a plate screwed to the rail.

LOL, and with the screwed on vin plate you can take it in and show it to the nice lady when you apply for tags.

I tried that - no good - had to bring the whole car with plates attached. However, I did bring the VIN to a couple of shows and a club meeting or two. :thumbsup:
