The serial number can be found on the face of the fly wheel and possibly on the bearing caps, like on the cap that is on the frame where the crankshaft rests.
Carlton Pape wrote a book on the Early Fords called The Early Ford Encyclopedia. There is a lot of information in there about the location of serial numbers.
You could also get on the club website for early Fords:

https://earlyfordregistry.com/

There is a forum there where any question about these cars could be asked.

Good luck. Send me a note if you need help. I'm vice president and can help you if needed.

If you can find a copy, get the book "Pate's Early Ford Encyclopedia", it is full of information on early Fords. Be sure the copy you get still has the CD in the pocket on the back cover with lots of extra information not in the print book. :)
