Re: Vin-

I have heard of the the glove box VIN being typed out wrong in other posts. Not sure is this is the problem here, but I would verify it against the driver door pillar VIN tag.

Good Luck,

Re: Vin-

Use the door plate VIN or frame VIN, which is located by the steering box on the top of the drivers side framerail.

It's a good chance to match those two up anyway to make sure that there wasn't a frame or cab swap. Good luck!

Re: Vin-

You have a 1970 or 1971 GMC Vin
KE204-Z??????
K = 4wd
E = V-8
2 = 3/4Ton
04 = Fenderside (stepside)
- = Space reserved for special designation code
Z = Assembly plant, Freemont
? This is the space for the year. looks like a 1 for 1971 but it is particaly blocked by the green scratch. If it is a Z then it's 1970
????? = serial number
Here is a GMC Decoder for 1970 and 1971
