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.

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.

Re: VIN decoder?

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).
