New Truck Owner
 

Hi, new truck owner here. I have what i believe is a 1969 :gmc2: 590D truck. Looking for some help with decoding the VIN/model number. I have the VIN listed as CE1ODBA16856. I have gotten out of the VIN that it is 2wd, V8 (350), 1/2 ton truck. but the rest of the VIN doesn't seem to make any sense from the decoders i have found. Anyone have more info on this? Thanks. Pics soon!

Vberg, Hello and welcome to the board. Lot's of good info here.
Here's what I get for your VIN
C=2WD
E=V-8
10=1/2 ton
D=Wideside pickup
B=Assy. at baltimore plant
A=1969
16856= 6,856 off the line. (serial/build number)

Very cool, thank you Bruceman. My truck is very close to original as best i can tell (minus a tacky aftermarket radio) and I'd like to return it as close as i reasonably can to original condition. I will post pictures soon, i have to take them for the collector plate application anyways, so when i get them i will post them here. thanks again for the info. Much appreciated.
