If you don’t mind me asking, where does the 41 come into play if the 46 is the 4600 weight?
Also would that whole number be the vin I put on the police inspection paperwork?
WOW you guys are really helpful.
The 41 is your year model
You have a 1941 Chevrolet model number 3100 ( 1/2 Ton) truck. With a max weight of 4600 Lb capacity with load ( the 46)
With a Serial number of “21AK10 1720”. (This number goes in the vin location on paperwork and title normally)
The police inspection guys will know this.
If you have a title then above year make and model and serial/vin is what it should say. If you have a title that says otherwise then you have some paperwork issues to resolve. If you have a bill of sale and it has a different year or other ids then you need to have that corrected as well.
The state you are in and it staff should be able to help you navigate as all states have their own way. They can tell you if you are allowed to have a reproduction plate made and stamped or if you must use original on the build. Again each state has its own rules on this. The most important part is a correct paper trail ( titles, bills of sale, registrations all lining up and correct from previous owner to you all with “21AK10 1720”. As the serial number for your truck because that is the plate you have with a clear serial number stamp. Even though you can’t read the rest is irrelevant
You do not have a 1947 truck as thread started. want to be clear again.
