Need help finding correct VIN on my 1971 Buick GS 350 Convertible

[Tom Sousa]

Good Day All;
I need to determine the actual location of the correct VIN that should be used? The VIN on the original VIN plate (drivers dash) = ST71 43467FL1 and when I had the car Inspected by an appraiser 8 years ago, he recorded the VIN as 434671H200876, which was also documented on several other pieces of paper that I have.

Where can I find alternate locations for the VIN?

The VIN is on the drivers dash to be read from the outside of the car.

Here is the '71 Chassis manual information:

Sounds like you have a problem...

The VIN is 434671H200876, which can be found on the driver side dash, as noted, or on a sticker on the drivers door. ST71 43467FL1 is the model year and body style number taken from the trim tag located on the cowl under the hood, it is not the VIN.
