Beautiful truck. Where did you find that number? The same number should appear on the transmission case (unless it has been changed), on top of the left frame rail probably near the steering (visible from under the hood) and on the title. It should also appear two places under the body. Your number doesn't match anything I have seen. For a 85 HP engine the number should take the form *18-XXXXXXX* where * is a star. The XXXXXXX is a sequential serial number assigned to the car. For a 60 HP engine the number should take the form *54-XXXXXX* You can find more information at: http://www.vanpeltsales.com/FH_web/flathead_serialnumbers.htm (I hope someone will step up and tell me I am wrong). Be sure to resolve this ASAP because it will become more difficult the longer you wait. The longer you wait the less power you will have over the seller.

Is there also a number on the frame? Does the VIN plate on the firewall look like it came from a government organization or does it look like it came from EBAY? How is the VIN plate attached? How about a picture? The good news is that it went through the motor vehicle department at least once to get the registration. I would put a high priority on getting it registered as you might have a problem with it. Why don't you put your general location in your profile, that might provide a hint towards solving the puzzle? Charlie Stephens This message was edited by CharlieStephens on 7-24-16 @ 7:56 PM
