Re: 1968 chevrolet
to the forum!
I think you have seen that the numbers only are what is stamped into the frame. That's what I saw with my truck, and have seen pics in other posts that bear that out. Here's a pic that I saved that you may want to see.

Re: 1968 chevrolet
The VIN should be 12 numbers/letters long.
Edit: here is a decoder: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/Chevyear.html

Re: 1968 chevrolet
I'd get the DMV in fix that. The VIN on the door plate is the one that matters, and if the one on your title does not match, it could bite you in the rear big time one day.

Re: 1968 chevrolet
The first cs14 is an error. It should be pretty easy to straighten out at the DMV IF you get an intelligent worker who cares abou their job.

Re: 1968 chevrolet
Not that you wouldn't figure this out before Monday, but it's a holiday in most states.
