Where's the serial number on the frame?

I can't tell as the body is off, but the
owner said there was a 2" gap between the
hood and cowl to clear the motor. Sounds
like a late-model grille/radiator would
do it ?

The engine doesn't look like a bad swap.
Right side motor mount on the block doesn't
connect though- mounted up front near the
crank pulley.

Some numbers off the engine are:
stamped, left front of block 105-4796
left of block, bottom, 1 13 428 870729-8
the top of the head: 954412-2
right front of block 'Chrysler Industial'
Type: FET-105-508
Serial : 142xx
Chryselr Corporation Industrial Division
Detroit Michigan USA

Anything there look like an engine size or date?
