the dealer says has 350V8 and tranny to match. says truck was restored 15-20 years ago. it looks good.
I can't find anything that will interpretthe number given for me. I have seen a similar plate
on one other truck I looked at - it had no other info - just this type number. I have been all over this site and gm heritage site.
The number given me for this truck is EEA349156
Thanks!

Very few questions are answered here in the Welcome Centre as not everyone visits here each time they come.
Please ask your question in the BIG BOLT forum and you will get answers.
(in the meantime I will leave this post here so that others can welcome you to our world of trucks. Hope all goes well for you. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 7,440 Bolter | | Bolter Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 7,440 | Welcome to the Stovebolt madness. There is no cure!

Built at the Flint MI plant. Some Dealers/motor vehicle dept used that number as the VIN back then. You seem to indicate there is a "plate" on the truck with that number or you are assuming there is and haven't seen the truck in person ("number given for me"). If it is an original plate or an MVD supplied plate.....that's good. The motor was marked and I guess is long gone. (350 V8 now). If there is no plate to match to a Title VIN, that can be a headache during registration.
The EEA seems to indicate a 2T truck.
Tim's link, and my info, is right off of the GM Heritage Site. There was an early 47 and a late 47. 1947.1 and 1947.2. Body change and etc. Art Deco styling to Advance Design styling. I believe the 2T followed suit.
