As Joe stated, most states used the engine number as the VIN through 1955. Any number on the tag, it it's still there, would be the serial number. I know 38 & up the engine number is on a raised boss behind the distributer. On your 36 it may be closer to the front of the engine on the passenger side if I remember correctly. I don't remember the exact year the change was made.
