Where is that tag located on the truck? looks to be like some sort of a State tag or something..

Re: New truck 1979 chevy truck with some questions
There should be another vin on it. Trucks that get dilivered to the military/government have tags similar to what you posted. But im quite certain they also have a normal VIN on them somewhere.

Re: New truck 1979 chevy truck with some questions
Your probably screwed then. Better peruse the classifieds/Craigslist for a title and vin.

Re: New truck 1979 chevy truck with some questions
It's a new vin the state reassigned and no that's illegal to swap vins

Re: New truck 1979 chevy truck with some questions
whats on the title? Same thing? You search the frame of the Chevy vin. Was it a state work truck or stolen or something like that?
Whats the history ?

Re: New truck 1979 chevy truck with some questions
Ditto, Its legal.
Most times a state issued vin indicates a cab swap done right. Sometimes the factory vin removed when the truck was stolen and when it was recovered, the state issued a new vin to the truck. Each state laws are differant and vins are handled differantly... |
