Does anybody know where the hidden VINs are on a Gen 1 Raptor?

I have my eye on one, and it's at a reputable dealer, but the Carfax on it is weird enough that I'm a little concerned it might be a stolen truck with a cloned VIN.

I want the truck, but I'd feel a whole lot better about it if I could get that doubt out of the back of my mind. Finding a VIN stamped into the frame or wherever that matches the one on the dash would go a long way.

My 2010 has the vin on the tire information sticker on the driver's side door frame and on the driver's door edged metal plate. Did a search and found information that Ford F150's have the vin stamped on the top of the frame driver's side below the master cylinder just under the fire wall, but I have not looked to see if that's true. Hope this helps you and good luck with the truck.

F150 has a vin stamp usually on the top of the frame rail at the front.
When you plug it in what vin is the PCM attached too?
