Re: GMC and Chevrolet VIN and Model Number Decoders with pics.
Anyone have an idea on what that might have been? From what I can gather, there were two 6 cylinder engines available in 1960.
And the guy who was the second owner can't remember what engine it had. He got it in 1988 at the age of 12. I know it had a manual transmission because of the high floor hump. |

Ronzo, It's got to be the 235 I6 Thriftmaster. The 261 I6 Jobmaster only came in the c60 and up trucks.

Re: GMC and Chevrolet VIN and Model Number Decoders with pics.
More important is the door pillar number plate and the frame numbers, they should all agree. But the number provided is in fact a 71 production VIN. Its also among the last of the last built there in 71. The blue door sticker is probably dated 7/71.

Re: GMC and Chevrolet VIN and Model Number Decoders with pics.
Interesting 4X2 70 Blazer.
There is a conflict between the model designation on the VINs, the door pillar plate and the SPID. But everything supports the fact it appears to be an original vehicle with a production typo. Both VINs should read CS180S156361. The actual build and options generally break down as: 1970 Blazer 4X2 (CS10514) 250 cid 6 cyl engine (std) 3-speed, column shift, manual trans (std) Base trim (std) Driver and passenger HD utility bucket seats (AN3) White hard top (Z58) 8.25-15/4RP highway tread, tube-type, tires rear and spare (RL2) G78-15/B highway tread, tube-type, front tires (RL5) Gold vinyl trim interior (690) Medium Gold Poly exterior (526) Painted bumpers front and rear (std) In all a nice general use truck. The Gold trim was a one year only option.

Re: GMC and Chevrolet VIN and Model Number Decoders with pics.
Hmm. The VIN doesn't match the door placard.
Mistake? Or........? Since everything else is the same I'm guessing it's just a mistake on the door.

Re: GMC and Chevrolet VIN and Model Number Decoders with pics.
Hi All,
I have acquired a chevy truck and I'm having trouble figuring out exactly what it is. I have some paperwork including the original maintenance log with the VIN stamped on the edge and the metal plate I believe originally located in the glove box. Here it is, can someone help me please? CE338Z130550 Thanks! |

Not sure what the question is though. Yes your truck decodes as a factory C/30 V8 157" wheelbase chassis cab. From the options I'd say it was a motorhome at some point, but definitely a Cheyenne/30

Re: GMC and Chevrolet VIN and Model Number Decoders with pics.
Hi ChevyCheyenne71,
On your model number, the 14 is the code for Axel to Cab dimension. I equated that to wheelbase because wheelbase length provides more useful information than a Axel to Cab dimension does. Also to save space and still include all most all of the trucks found on this website, the trucks over 1 ton, or over 133" WB were left off. The decoders only cover light duty trucks, 133" WB or less. In your case the 14 is a Axel to Cab dimension of 84" to 89". Which equates to a wheelbase of 157" Hope that helps and welcome to the forum. Looking forward to seeing more of your truck. Nice looking Dually you have there.

Re: GMC and Chevrolet VIN and Model Number Decoders with pics.
This is by far the easiest vin decoder to use and best looking one i have ran into in my many vin decoder searches. I have a small problem though. The truck i. Trying to decode is a GMC 5500 (Same as a chevy C50) and its vin is different than what are pictured. Its vin is CE50V-A102079

Re: GMC and Chevrolet VIN and Model Number Decoders with pics.
My GMC reference materials are packed up right now. (I'm in the middle of a move). But let me see if I can get this off the top of my head.
CE50V-A102079 C = 2wd E = V-8 5 = 2 Ton 0V = Cab & Chassis - = Space reserved for special designation A = Atlanta assembly plant 1 = 1971 02097 = Unique serial number Thanks for the complement on the decoders.

Re: GMC and Chevrolet VIN and Model Number Decoders with pics.
So one of my trucks is also a GMC 1 ton with the 157'' wheelbase (used to be a class B MH) Pretty sure the wheelbase code is 64, that is what is says on the glove box anyways as the model-- CE364OV -- vin: CE3OV ZA 2....
