Sure wish people would use real names in their post. It is nice to know whom you are corresponding with.
To your problem. I suggest you come up with a valid engine #. Sounds like the # you are asking about does not exist. Once you get a # take it to your State Motor Vehicle Registration Office & apply for a corrected Title (if you live in a title state). If not a title state you will probably need a Bill of Sale with the motor # listed. Trucks did not have VIN numbers until sometime in the 1950's. The Tag on the cab was a unit ID #.
Hope this helps.
