Pillar VIN is for a 1971 2wd 8-cyl 1/2t St. Louis Pickup
Where on the frame is the VIN # located? I assumed since the SPID saying import that it had. Thanks for decoding, I finally figured it out.

Borrowed pic from member Longhorn Man showing where frame VIN should be on the LH front frame rail posterior to the steer box. There's an interesting story behind the GM build on that Blazer I'm sure.

You bet and good luck. Hope this doesn't end up in a huge boondoggle for you.

Serial number on frame and glove box match.
