Besides the left A-pillar, on a later C3---say 78 to 82---where is the VIN stamped on the vehicle?

My understanding is that the # stamped on the engine and trans is only a partial VIN. Is that correct.
In addition to the location shown in the image cited above and a second location above the #4 body mount bracket, another post in a different thread on the 81 Registry board says there is a VIN stamp at the rear corner of the frame. Anyone know anything about that?
Correct. Engine, frame, and tranny have VIN derivitives stamped on them -- not complete VINs (usually car code, model year, plant code, and consecutive unit number). Don't know about the rear stamp on the Bowling Green cars. I read that post and it was news to me, but Peer says he found one.
