Thanks to all for the replies.
According to the very nice MDPD Detectives from the Auto Theft Division who are helping to get this sorted out 55 shows as having a stamped frame. I explained there were 2 different 55's built and they're gonna do some more research.
This evening I took the drill with a wire brush to the top of the frame, drivers side, from the front shock mount back to past where the e-brake crossbar is located. No indication of any stamping.
In answer to Tim's first post.

Last Registration What "code" are you referring to?
Another question re engine serial #'s. Are all 216, 235 & 261 blocks stamped in the same place?
