No VIN tag, have ?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Hello, I recently acquired a frame with a matching title, previous owner said that he was going to look for the vin tag, so far he hasn't been able to find it and I don't think he will, my questions are, Can I use this frame and title in a truck without the vin tag? I know that in this state they're not that strict about having a vin tag on the cab (or so I think

) and is illegal to make one, I also know that the glove box door has the sticker with the VIN number on it, if I get all this together (matching frame, title, glove box) would I be ok? or is the frame and title worthless without the VIN tag?
Thank you guys for any replies and suggestions you can make are always appreciated. Paul.

I'm sure you can get another one reissued since it's lost. That's what's on the Jimmy, it also has the paper work to go along with it if there is a problem. Huck from Ky did the legwork to get the new one.

Thanks for the response Rob, how long did it take until you got your tag? how costly is to do this? Thank you again Paul.

Paul, It was replaced before I bought it so I don't know the details on the cost and timing. Don't think it should be that big a deal since you have title and all. Rob

Thanks again for the input Rob, guess I'll have to find out sometime soon, later.
