Funky vin number
« on: September 18, 2021, 06:33:16 PM »
I’m looking at an 1984 4 door Chevy custom deluxe. It’s has a regular rear axel not dually.  My issue is I’m trying to de-code the vin but it’s not close to matching up. Maybe some of you grey beards know.

The vin is : 16c6c23m3est17096

Your first two 6's should be G's and the t should be a numeral since it would be the first number in the six digit sequential serial number. .
I get, US built chevy, 8001-9000 gvw, 2 wheel drive, 3/4 ton, 4 door, 350, 84, built in St Louis. then the mystery serial number

VIN doesn't appear to be valid, according to all my vin-breakers.
87 V20 Standard Cab Longbed (current)

87 R30 3+3 Longbed (days of yore)

98 C2500 ext cab longbed

This is the correct vin! I’m excited for this find. Anything specific about the bonus I need to look out for. It’s a 4 speed.
