My '46 truck lost its VIN plate, but thank goodness it was registered using the VIN number and not the engine number. I obtained a replacement, only to realize I had no means to stamp the numbers onto the plate. I laid it aside until my wife showed me an ad for "Harbor Freight Tools" that included three different stamp sets (1/16", 1/8", 1/4"). Well, the 1/8" set was a near perfect match to the original size and font -- and cost less than $8.00! Warning -- it does not take a heavy hammer blow to mark those repo VIN plates!
