Is it this exact car he's wanting? A project car is A LOT of money. Just make sure you aren't literally throwing money away. Before you buy it, make the seller get a replacement vin, it may take months to get, but if he can't get it, then at least you aren't left with a hunk of metal.
Now for the vin and the other plate.
My Trans Am has a VIN on the dash, bottom of the windshield. It also has a cowl tag with a partial vin on the cowl.
My dad's corvette has a Vin on the on the pillar, and a tag in the door jam too.
In reality it doesn't really matter if you don't have a cowl tag. Sure, it isn't going to be worth as much, but it's not really considered crucial. What you need is the whole vin in it's factory location.
