1600mi Road Trip! Only made it 20mi...

I'd be concerned about a vin swap situation, like did someone stick a 71 title and numbers on a stolen truck. HOPEFULLY that is not the case, but its something you NEED to confirm before getting to deep! VIN swaps are a federal offense, hate to see something bad happen down the road

I intend to look into it a bit. I’m not familiar with the trucks at all so I will have to research some things out. If it were an A body I would know where to look to see if things half way lined up. Even at that though, panels with vin numbers get swapped often... I’m not sure how I would know if there was foul play. I have a clean and clear title that was in the sellers name and he listed the Vin on the Ad. I really don’t expect to find any surprises in that area. I think someone along the way liked the older grille better and swapped it. I like it too! Now, I can’t wait to get this thing on the lift and start really looking at what’s been done to this poor truck... there is absolutely no telling what kind of surprises I find in that area...:eek:
