VIN plate differences
Can someone tell me why there is a difference in VIN plates with our trucks?
Specifically, what is this small plate compared to the fuller/larger plates? I'm looking to buy this truck and don't want any suprises.

Re: VIN plate differences
My 69 has a tag like that. Can't remember if there is another one under it. Your's looks like there was something under it or something. My 71 has a bigger one that uses 4 rivits.
WOW that's a big bad picture Last edited by LOW DOUGH; 01-20-2009 at 10:33 PM. |

Re: VIN plate differences
67 - 69 used 2 seperate plates like the first one I have attached... in 70, they went to the one piece plate

Re: VIN plate differences
Appreciate it.
However, Longhorn Man, if you run the vin I listed...it says its a '70. (and still a 2 plate) But, at least I got the answer to the vin plate question. Thanks.
