The 0 should be a letter and NOT the letter O.

If it is actually a Q that truck is a 73.

Glruff,

From that site you keep posting info ....at the bottom.

It doesn't pertain to vehicles built before 1982 (but actually 1981)

67-79 Trucks and earlier have 11 digit VIN#'s

That site is for the 17 digit numbers that started in 1981.


VIN Decoder

Here is your guide to interpreting universal Vehicle Identification Numbers (VINs). All vehicle information applies to 1982 - 2005 models only. For previous model year VIN information, check sources at your dealership. Universal Vehicle Identification Numbers have 17 "positions." There is a number or letter in each position (see VIN Example below).

VIN Lookup

To use this utility, simply enter in a vehicle's VIN in the box below. The vehicle information applies to 1982 through 2005 models only. Once the VIN has been entered, click the Submit button, and a response page will appear with that particular vehicle's VIN information.
