Re: VIN Help
No, that VIN indicates a 70-71 GMC 3/4 ton fleetside 2WD V8 truck.
Posted in the other thread also. Welcome to the site. |

Re: VIN Help
Chevy and gmc have different types of VIN numbers. You need to go look at a gmc decoder,

Re: VIN Help
A 72 GMC VIN is preceded by a T, so that rules out a 72.
C = 2WD E= V8 2=3/4 ton 34=70-71 fleetside. S=St Louis plant 1=71 model year Look at 3rd picture on 1st post of the other thread you posted the question in. |
