Frame markings/paint marker
New guy here, I picked up a 71 k20 a few weeks ago that has under 20k real miles on it, 350/th350/205, truck needs some work but was all there down to the 5th 16.5 spare. Upon cleaning and start of disassembly I noticed some writing on the back frame cross member in white paint pen it’s not totally legible but I was curious as to what it was. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.

Re: Frame markings/paint marker
Usually it is a CE code for a 2wd and followed by the numbers that designate it being a long bed or short bed. It can be a K code as well for 4wd.

Re: Frame markings/paint marker
Also seems like they are upside down if I remember right.

Re: Frame markings/paint marker
Cannot speak for the trucks but the corvette frames were delivered from the vendor stacked upside down and the SN and some other information was stenciled /marked upside down because of this.
