"The Anderson Tapes" is a 1971 crime / thriller movie starring Sean Connery.

imdb

Wikipedia

Never heard of it before, but it looks good.

Why do you ask?

edit: Now totally baffled as to how you posted a Russian YouTube video about a 1970s movie instead of your picture.

IIRC, 39443331 is the part number for the frame. Your frame was manufactured by A. O. Smith with a date code of May 19. "XK" may be the broadcast code, check your assembly manual to verify this.

39443331 = Frame Assembly Number (the frame is an assembly of multiple parts).
S in a circle = Maunfactured by A.O. Smith
193 = uknown, but see below
5 19 = Date of manufacturer: May 19
N 1 = possibly a shift indicator, first shift?
XK = Applicaiton code (or like, RocketVapor called it, broadcast code)

I can't find it, but I vaguely recall a discussion on regarding the last three digits on the top line. As I recall, they incremented as the model year progressed. It's probably a lot number or something.

If you found this stamping behind the rear wheel to be in good condition, there's a good chance you'll be able to find a VIN derivative stamp as well. On my Lansing-built '70, it is on the outboard side of the left frame rail, 12 inches forward of the back of the door.

Thanks I was thinking it was on the top of the frame . The hole thing was under coated from what I was told long before the 80's even so you could be right on finding it .
