Yesterday, I purchased what I was told to be a 64 C10 But, later last night I noticed on the Bill of Sale for the 64 C10 the Vin# also started C1445A******
So, do I now own a second 65 C10? If so, my bill of sale is incorrect... right?
Thanks for any help in advance.

If no one jumps in, I'll break out one of my Chevy books to check on it for you. I can't remember it good enough without checking in the book, but it does look like both trucks are the same year.

Bill | | | | | Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 81 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 81 | I'm sure it was a simple mistake on the sellers end (mine too for not looking closer). My thoughts are to get the bill of sale(BOS)correct before I go to the bureau to transfer it. Here in my area, the non title vehicles have to be verified by a person within the bureau or a police officer. All in all its not a bad thing the truck is a 65 since I was looking for a donor for my first 65 C10!  I appreciate all the replies! | | | | | Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 Cruising in the Passing Lane | | Cruising in the Passing Lane Joined: Jul 2001 Posts: 3,887 | what counts is the vin tag on the truck, that's what the authorities will be verifying, not what year is stated
Bill | | | | | Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 81 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Feb 2011 Posts: 81 | Bill, I agree. Yet, it would be my luck to get one of those authority persons that can be a hard case!  ... LOL.
