FWIW, your truck's original VIN "should" have been:
If V8 fleetside: CE10D ZAxxxxx
If I6 fleetside: CS10D ZAxxxxx
The x's are the sequential build # identifier.
If you can clean off the frame a little more and figure out those last 5 digits, perhaps DMV can be a little more help. Sounds like the office you went to was willing to run your partial VIN #, so maybe they will help with these possible numbers. On the other hand, you might not like what they find out.. But, at least you'd know and they would also know you're being as up front with it as possible - and might be inclined to help. Unless, of course, it turns out that some dude stole it 5 owners ago. Am assuming no title?

BTW, 6 lug rotors are either 71+ 4x4 or, much more likely, aftermarket (part of a drop kit I'm assuming since you mentioned spindles looking new) - GM didn't make em for 2WD trucks.
