best way I could help you is to snap a pic of my mirrors, and post them. If I emember correctly, the twin-strut mirrors with slight "hood" are correct. In 1960, they made a change, and the "hood" was gone.

We will be there too and we look forward to meet you! And it is OK to go to Carlisle without your car, I have been doing that for years

Tim,
Sorry my posting wasn't soon, it took me a long time to find the link to the company but here it is: http://www.kingoftrim.com/
I have asked this question before, but not in the same way, and I never got a clear answer of which way it was. My question is on any 59 Plymouth, although I am specifically talking about Sport Fury convertible or hard top, Is there only the one tag on the firewall for the VIN. I know the tags are different between convertible and hardtop. There are holes in the drivers door jamb, but after talking with someone else who has a hardtop Sport Fury, there is no tag present. Is that true of anyones 59 Plymouth ?. My hardtop has a tag, but it may be just because the title was lost and a builders title had to be obtained. It is like a similar number, but not the same. I would know for sure if I had made it to Chryslers at Carlisle, but I wasn't able to get there.
Our Sport Fury Hardtop also has the VIN on the cowl and in the door jamb there are 2 holes but no plate.
Guess it's the build plant that is the difference.
Now I am confused, it seems like some cars have them in the door jamb and some don't . Do all cars have them on the firewall ?. Dan, your car also has a cowl tag, correct ?. My door jamb tag is not like that, it is a smooth shiny piece that uses the rivet holes to mount. The number is also similar to the VIN on the cowl, but is not the VIN. That is why I think it must have had a builders title, and they kept the number similar, but is different. My titlle actually uses the VIN on the door jamb. I will post a picture when I get the chance.
Dan,
You should condence the information in the above thread into it's own header as this question of vin plate location comes up quite often and this has to be one of the most informative disscusions to date..
