You never checked the VIN number??????????? Goodness me. Gosh all Friday. Holy Guacamole. Do-Do due diligence.
Of course we don't know what did not match, what the truck originally had for the officer to see a mismatch, why a seller would offer a title and plate that didn't match and expect someone not to notice. Some things left out of this story. Don't take this the wrong way, but hope you are not asking how to do something sketchy. (repair what?) after 42 years??
No need to "repair". There is no numbers matching disaster, It's either a 53 Chevy or it ain't. If title VIN matches a DMV issued VIN tag..... it's legit.
