The registration "VIN" for a 1953 truck could be the engine serial number (more common) or the VID plate in the driver's side door opening between the hinges (less common). It seems to depend on the policies/laws in your state.
You might want to search on "VIN" or "registration" or "title" because this topic has been discussed many times.
Your best bet is to see if Florida has a DMV website. Read the information on how to register a vehicle, especially how to register an antique vehicle.
Maybe someone will reply who has registered an old vehicle in Florida and was in your situation. What other people might post about how it works in their state will not be of much help. I have been in your situation in New York and it was quite easy registering a vehicle older than 1972 without a good title or VIN.
