Re: Frame vin number
Doesn't look like a partial VIN to me.
It should be something like HF123456, where H, or some number, would be the model year designation F, or B, or J, or R, or 1 (for Oshawa) would be the assembly plant code 123456 = sequential portion of VIN 3998723 looks like a part number, so you might be able to get at it that way. Roughly what generation or model year do you think this frame is? (ie, 67-72, 73-87 or newer? older?) K

Re: Frame vin number
For your year it should be stamped on top of the frame rail about even with the drivers door. You might need a mirror to see it.

Re: Frame vin number
So in the picture above (off the top of my head):
0 = 1970 model year Z = Fremont 148678 = sequential portion of VIN Frankinstienracer - I'd be looking for a stamping with that format K

That would make it a 1972 frame out of Fremont. K

Re: Frame vin number
So a 2 Z would be a year 72?
