I just got a 36 and the serial number on the firewall is FB59077. Well thats what it looks like. I am going through a title service and need to know if this is correct. I put it through the vin decoder and it doesn't reconize it.

I just ordered my resto kit and chevy could not confirm it was correct, they are still sending the kit though. any ideas?

Look on the engine, on a boss behind the distributor. Click on the "search" link under the "Post New Topic" button. Put VIN in the search box. After you read all of those put "title" in the search box. You'll find hours of reading on this subject.

You'll need to contact your governmental titling authority & see what requirements they have. They might let you use the serial number, they might not.

The FB on the body serial number tells you that it is a 1936 half ton pickup. F=1936, B=half ton pickup.

Stick that number in the VIN Buster

It tells you that it's a 1936 1/2 ton with a 112inch wheelbase built in Kansas City, MO.


an idea is only stupid if you think about it rationally.
