>>>The VIN on #1256 was stamped on a metal plate that was riveted to the
top of the pedal box; the box was actually open on the top I believe, but for
this riveted-on top piece. It was quite a bit larger than the one you
describe though. The plate covered the whole top of the pedal box.
After the first few hundred cars, the plate was welded as part of the pedal
box.
