Straight for the horses mouth:
Why can I not obtain a CARFAX Report on vehicles made before 1981?
We are unable to provide you with vehicle history information for vehicles manufactured prior to 1981, when the 17 character VIN became standard. The 17 character VIN is the code that is used to access CARFAX’* vehicle history information database.
To our knowledge there are no sources from whom pre-1981 vehicle history information is available readily. You could try to contact vehicle-specific clubs or groups focused on older vehicles.
We wish we could have helped you more. Please let us know if there is anything else CARFAX can help you with.
Sorry man

There was a new member that mentioned he had some checks left on his Carfax signup time, maybe this new member can lend a hand here. Even the Doctor needs some time off once in a while
