There is also a small metal tab in the lower left of the windshield in front
of the driver with the commission number on it, at least my '79 has this
"feature".

My 2cents worth:  Most states have VIN inspections and the inspectors have
"usually" been trained as to where VIN plates are for particular car
models.  Of course, the ones in washington state went ape on mine because
the commission number didn't match the frame number which didn't match the
body number which didn't match the engine number.......

Anyhow, moving the VIN plate is a VERY BAD idea.  They know where it
should be, it isn't there anymore, and unless I have been misinformed,
it's a felony to screw around with VIN plates so you could get nailed.
