Re: first and second series pu's titles
I believe that the true VIN back then was the casting # on the block. I learned this the hardway when I went to pick up my new plates at the DMV. The number on the door tag didn't match the VIN on the slip(title). I thought that I had bought a "hot" truck 16 years ago and was just finding out about it. Then I did some talking to older hot rodders who let me in on the secret. I guess if you swapped motors you had to apply for a new title. I'm stamping my chassis, bed and cab with both sets of #'s.

Re: first and second series pu's titles
