Who remembers the VIN from their first square body? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I sold my first truck 12 years ago and to this day I haven't forgotten the VIN.

CCY243Z136724.

I just think it's funny when you deal with getting a truck back on the road that has sat forever and dealing with all of the DMV bull, that you eventually start to remember your VIN by heart.

Don't have the truck any more but I do still have the title, vin plate and the RPO sticker from the glove box stashed away here. 1974 heavy half camper special C10 454/TH400 W/3:07 gears.

I've only had one square, but I haven't committed the vin to memory...I do remember my first car, though...an '85 Mustang GT...1fabp28m0ff129648.

LOL!!!!

I don't have the vin of my first square memorized, but 11 squares later I still have that one. Does that count?

Evil Trailblazer SS · 12-25-2011, 02:50 AM

My '78 Chevy K20 Silverado VIN is CKL248Z139248

I sold that truck ten years ago and still have it memorized...Now that VINs have 17 digits, it's harder, but everytime I go to the dealer for parts on the TrailblazerSS, they are amazed I have that one memorized too...1GNET13H562335585

I have not memorized any other of my Square body trucks or my old 2003 Honda Accord...

Huh? I barely have my birthday memorized...

**78 Big10 454** · 12-26-2011, 02:45 AM

I've had one square and one square only. It turned 34 years old yesterday (12/24). But, I have to admit, do not have the VIN committed to memory.

85crewcab · 12-26-2011, 11:19 AM

I still have my one and only square...

my first square was a 1936 Chevy. i paid 50 bucks .. and drove it home.. that was 1963, i do not think it had a vin.. if it did i did not need it,, i do remember my service number that i haven't needed since the early 70's... the farmer that i bought her from offered to spread the cost over a few pay days.. i didn't need that option, i was working for him at 75 cents an hour.. almost rich.. i miss old man smith at times, his only son died during ww2..
