VIN decode 1/2 or 3/4 ton
1969 GMC 4X4 Vin K9E1491106030
Can anyone confirm if this truck is a 1/2 or 3/4 ton by the VIN?

Re: VIN decode 1/2 or 3/4 ton
Thanks, it is now a fleetside, but it is advertized as a 2500 1/2 ton and the picture does not show how many wheel studs there are.

PM board member Rod. He's got a lot of info on Canadian GMC Vins, he can probably give you some insight.

I found the following link....

Re: VIN decode 1/2 or 3/4 ton
PM'd you the answer..its a simple one..just that 9 after the K meant built in Canada (they "GM" did that on some 67-69 vins) on GMC vins...rest decodes like the boards decoders.
4wd, 8 cyl, 1/2 ton box pickup, 1969, built in Oshawa
