Frame numbers

I have a '56 body sitting on a later frame with an updated front clip. There are numbers stamped on the driver's side frame rail that look to be N120897. Anybody have a clue as to the origins of the frame? Thanks!

Re: Frame numbers

I have to agree with what Orrie said, Photos help a lot here. Especially photos of the a frames the way the steering is mounted and the front crossmember from the front.
