Looking for a 75 to 79 K5 Blazer body
 

Ok, here's the deal. I just got a complete K5 (78 I think) without a motor. I was gonna use the motor from my Scottsdale and scrap the rest. The only really dumb thing I did was not get the title for the K5, which I thought I could get from DMV. Turns out that I got it home and saw the VIN tag had been removed. Now i'm stuck with it and apperently no hope of making it legal.
So I need a K5 body with a title. The one I have is fine too, but I don't know anyway around the VIN tag and title thing. I was going to rivet a different tag on, even found one off the same truck in a junkyard, but it does me no good if I don't know who had the title last. Actually all i really need is the VIN tag and title off a simmilar one. If anyone has suggestions or a K5 body I could use all the help I can get.

You should be able to go to the highway patrol and have them issue another number I believe. Thats what I was told. They check it out, make sure its legal and give you another number thats up in the door jamb. Anyone know if this is true?

Isn't the vin number on the frame somewhere as well...?
