Quick VIN decode?
Can you guys break this down for me? Looks like 4x4, with v-8 gas engine, 1969, made in janesville?
KE149JXXXXX I need to verify the truck as a 1/2 ton short box 4x4. Thanks, Eric

1969 Model,4x4,350 V8,Half ton,Made in Janesville.
Cant tell wheelbase by VIN.You will have to look on the glovebox to figure out the wheel base. Last edited by 1969k10stepside; 12-29-2006 at 06:03 PM. |

Re: Quick VIN decode?
So, is the 14 in the code telling me 1/2 ton? My 69 service manual is not too clear on this one. The glove box shows 115" wheelbase. Thanks

Re: Quick VIN decode?
115" would make it a short box
