I have a 1955 2nd series truck with no number on the door jamb plate. Just the word CHEVOLET is visible. The left frame rail is stamped in two places with the vin number. Is this the way it was done?

If you have the original engine, check the serial number on it. It's the only other possibility.

if the left frame rail between cab and rad mount has a number stamped, that's the VIN - if ya clean that door post plate carefully it should show there the same cuz it was stamped in, not painted on - tho' you might be seein just the GVW plate, w/ the smaller plate that has the VIN gone
