The first picture is a mistake, it was a truck I was trying to buy. The truck I am talking about is the blue one. I have stripped the paint off the can and the doors, the factory color was the same on the door as the cab. No extra holes in the door jamb for a data plate, even looked inside the back of the jamb to make sure they have not been filled in. My guess is its a 72 cab at the very least. If it is a 72 cab and frame its title as a 69. So the question is do I just leave it alone or try to correct it. I don't plan on selling the truck but at some point in my life it will get sold. I am doing this to be my DD during the summer. Im sure I can get a 72 title and vin plate from somewhere to make it all match it just seems like a lot of hassle.
