yes the plate I am talking about is the one that has the GVW and engine hp, with the body/chassis number on it. Not what describes what the truck has.

This is what Im talking about

And yes this is for my 52 Chevrolet 3/4 ton pickup. I already had the title switched over from the previous owners name, so it is in my name. I will need to get it registered and insured once I finish it.

The title must have been switched over to use the body/chassis id number when the previous owner swapped in the 235 as the number is not a engine id number and matches a body/chassis id for a 52 3/4 ton truck.
