Several years ago, I bought a 48 3600 cheap at a local auction with a title. Even talked to the old guy getting out of farming.
He had the truck since the late 50’s and I retitled it in my name in Missouri with no VIN inspection. When I went to sell it a couple years later, the potential buyer asked if the VIN numbers matched. In those days, (pre 1955) the VIN number went by the engine number behind the dizzy.
The motor had been swapped out way back when so the VIN did not match. Hauled it down to the HP inspection and they searched the frame, firewall and several other places that the number could also be stamped. On the 48 and the 65 they checked the frame on the drivers side behind the front tire and frame under the drivers seat. In the one picture you can see the inspector lying on the trailer looking for numbers. None found on both trucks.
Like I said Utah could have different rules, so it is best to contact the Utah Highway patrol or the DMV to find out for sure.
In your case they should do an inspection and then say it is a typo and reissue a new correct title.
I urge you to not circumvent the law, it will only bite you in the long run.
