I'll start, my old unit was born in JANESVILLE.
My truck is a cheesehead too. Actually both trucks that made up my mutt were born there. The 1971 chassis is from Janesville as is the 1970 cab some cowboy in Wyoming put on the 4x4 frame.

That is all I can decode. The cowboy that slapped it together kept the titles which I have photocopies of to keep the MN state people happy. The interior is 1968, 50th anniversary white and gold and the tail gate appears to be that golden anniversary color. I only found enough of the build sheet in the seat to confirm the 50th anniversary code. Not enough remained to determine the build location. The 350 that I made a 383 is out of a KC built 1971 Monte Carlo. The tranny and xfer came out of a 1972 Blazer - I didn't bother to get a VIN on that vehicle the dude was dismantling. The bed that I purchased dismantled over in cheesehead land was said by the PO to come out of Colorado. Again - no clue where that was originally built.

I did say it was a mutt. Didn't I?

Maybe we should have a thread about who has the most unoriginal, original looking truck. The most opposite of survivor.
