Golfman. Find these pieces and you will find the numbers; <br /><br />1.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;rear brake light switch<br />2.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;center stand bracket<br />3.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;negative strap<br />4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;left swing arm pivot <br /><br />These pieces surround (and sometimes cover part of) the frame number. <br /><br />Good luck. If you find them post them here for all to see please.<br />

Thanks PA That is were I am looking. I tried to email pics but my file was too big. I haven't figured it out yet. <br />I need to apply for a title and need some sort of numbers to put on the application.<br /> The engine is out so is almost everything else. There is nothing in my way. I must be right or a moron. <br /><br /><br />

Don't laugh. I had to look several times. Lay down on your side with a flashlight. Look on the frame member going up towards your seat, just in front of the side cover. The numbers are stamped into the frame and have a coat or two of paint on them. Be patient, look extra carefully and it will appear...just like magic. :)

Hey guys thanks for all your help! I found it with some help. Actually when I took the engine out the kickstand bracket moved down and actually covered the numbers. Never mind it's been painted and was covered pretty good. Also, I didn't know the numbers ran vertically on the frame. Boy, do I feel stupid<br /><br /><br />Ca78-1023389 frame<br /><br />Ca77E-1023526 engine<br /><br />1965 Wiring harness<br /><br />Can anyone tell if the engine and frame were original when they left the factory? I assume they are.<br /><br />Matt
