He was not interested in the Engine Serial Number.

Just what I have recently experienced . . .

You see that is the problem Tim, the people running the show, are not supplied with the accurate information in Mr. Confused46 case. This is a huge obsticle for this person, because the bureaucrat that is calling the shots is looking for something that cannot/never existed, unless this truck has been retitled and restamped along the way. But again each state did things different back then. It really forces one to utilize a little ingenuity, and I say that in the most legal of terms.
