Hi, Josef -
As I mentioned previously, as far as I know the VIN/chassis number was
stamped on the shock tower only for BJ8s (and possibly for BJ7s). See the
attached photo for an example. There is another number stamped on a
different part of the shock tower that was applied by Jensens, and it
appears not to relate to either the chassis or body number of a car but was
used by Jensens or BMC for their own purposes.

As chassis number on the right front shock tower was mentioned I am a bit
puzzled. As far as I know, Jensen stamped in their production number there,
but this is different to the real chassis number or even the real body
number.
As far as I can say its like this on my original 62 BT7. The number stamped
in
the shock tower is different to body and chassis number.
Please correct me, if I am wrong.
