The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk INCORRECT VIN 1950 Chevrolet 3100 (LA plant code)

Hi all,

I have a 1950 3100 truck with a vin that is not conform original coding. The VIN is on the title also, VIN plate is newer (matching title). I guess somewhere in time a mistake was made during a title transfer.

Current VIN 20PH18277

From what I found out it should be
20HP?18277 ? = production month

Is it possible to identify VIN letter combination based on plant code (20, LA) and production sequence number (18277) ?

Is there anyone out there with a 1950 3100 from LA plant - what is your VIN, is the production sequence number anything like mine ?

All help appreciated!

Thanks !
