I have a 1952 3100 that is supposed to have a 1959 235c.i. car engine in it. I even saw the car it came out of, but I know that doesn't prove anything. The engine # is F042 then either a 6 or a small case b. Followed by an L. Otherwise, Very clear. The list I have for 1958 -65 Chevy motors does not have a suffix that begins with an F. Any clues? Next the Vin. It reads 21KPC-2801. While that is a 10 didgit vin, I think the first didgit should be a letter to designate the assembly plant. So the order of the vin is incorrect. No worries on the vin matching the title, it does- especially since the Va. State Police and district attorney issued the title going by the vin on the truck. Vin tag looks authentic as issued by Chevy. It just seems like a "incorrect" #, especially the order. Any ideas? Back to the motor. It has the 848 head and it is a 235 c.i. (reasonably certain). While none of this is detrimental to the truck, I am just curious. Thanks-Panhead
