Interchangeable body parts between 140/240? VIN placement?

posted by  someone claiming to be 914turboford on  Thu Apr 7 17:21 CST 2005 [RELATED]

I was looking at a 1972 144 and a late 70's 240 today. It looks like the horizontal joint where the front fenders meet the substructure is different, the hood is different and the front of the car is longer on the 240. Has anyone ever put 140 front sheet metal on the front of a 240? I do understand that the doors are interchangeable. Also, where are the VIN locations on both cars? Are the VIN's stamped into the body shell anywhere or are they all done with riveted or screwed on tags?
