It's probably a typo.
If the VIN on the truck, matches the VIN on the title, then there is nothing wo worry about. The computers don't have the programs to decode what it is, they just need to fill in the blanks.
You can tell them it is a 67 when they change the title to your name, and even pring out a VIN decode page (like the on on this site for example) and show them. This will make them get up and look at your truck in case they were planning on not looking at it (make sure it has the right VIN plate rivits).
I told them my one ton was a 3/4 ton. Saves me quite a bit on my registration fees. No one even blinked an eye. It is now registered as a c/20 with a 9000 pound GVW.
