yes, GBA XXXXX is an engine serial number. most trucks will be titled by their engine number. most states have relaxed VIN standards for older than 1950 because of this.

you can look for this number on a flat pad on the block directly behind the distributor hole. if it matches, good for you, PA will LIKELY (I dont know for sure) inspect it based on that number and assign a VIN that they will rivet in the door jamb.

if you find the tag, USE IT, the tag number will be different than the engine number, they will not match.
