If so someone prolly just wanted a Silverado and switched the badges if you search on here you will find many people here do just that... I turned mine from a Scottsdale to a Silverado
as long as the VINs match all is good if not you MAY have a legal nightmare on your hands which would require your state police to get involved

years ago in the late seventies Chrysler was notorious for sending out aspen/volare mixes on their cars I must have seen about five or six back then and I was only a kid so my travelling wasn't that far

Agree - I've seen some trucks that were Chevy on one side and GMC on the other.

In fact, we used to convert our GMC race truck to a Chevy so that we could run the "Super Chevy Sunday" events.

Nonetheless - yodert - post up the VIN (except for the last five digits) and we'll see if we agree there is a disconnect. Here's a VIN card for 1985 so you can do some of your own analysis:

You should be looking at the third digit in the VIN: 1GTDK14J3FF512345 where "T" = GMC; the GMC build sequence also started with 500001.

I'll check the frame. Any special location on the frame? I'm headed to get the VIN verified today, and hope it all works out. I'll keep ya posted!

Thanks again!

It is on the passenger side top of the frame rail right behind the front bed bolt hole. There is no hidden VIN on the cab.
