VIN decoder?
Is there a good VIN decoder for the medium and heavy duty trucks from 60s and 70s or possibly the 80s? I can find 10-30 series decoders, but not the heavy trucks.

Re: VIN decoder?
I've seen some online, but mostly they can be found in factory manuals.
Is there any particular truck you are trying to decode?

Re: VIN decoder?
I don't have a specific one right now, but when I scan trucks for sale I like to know about the truck from the VIN.

Re: VIN decoder?
I don't believe there is much online but if you locate some, let us know. Best bet would probably be to get a hold of some factory manuals.

This is an example:
https://www.equipmentfacts.com/listi...-chevrolet-c60 Very little description, but the VIN is listed. It would be nice to know more from the VIN on the heaver trucks. |

Re: VIN decoder?
The GM VIN cards have Medium and Heavy duty information.
https://gsitlc.ext.gm.com/dealerworld/vincards/ We used to carry these around in our pockets for reference (along with note cards and our pocket protectors). K
