Hi all!

Just a quick question. Besides under the passenger side hood, is there another VIN location?

My '73 Canyonlands has a blue sticker on the drivers side (interior) panel, and i think it is on the build sheet sticker behind the glove box.

One is on the plate on the front of the firewall on the passengers side,
behind the access door. The other is on the left frame rail on the outside
face, upside down, a short ways to the rear of the bolted connection to the
front subframe. This one is sorta hard to see and may require some wire
brushing and WD-40 (or something similar) to get it to show up. My '74
also has a decal on the drivers side panel with the VIN. It is also on the
service parts ID label inside the glove box.

While I haven't seen one on any other coach, I did see a little plate on the top inside of the door frame with the TZE on a coach I looked at the other day. It LOOKED like a GM installed plate and I might even have a picture around here somewhere....

For info: It was an early 1978 Royale Center Kitchen.
