There are slight variations in VIN arrangements between 67-72. Some use C to denote Chevrolet (apart from GMC). See more details here: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=570059

Does the VIN on the SPID match the one on the frame?

Where is the VIN on the frame? The door sticker and riveted data plate all have the sale # as the glove box. Some might think it was altered or messed with, but it's been in the family since 1980. Mom bought it from the original owner who was my neighbor / music teacher. 99% sure it rolled of the assembly line as a 4X4.
The option sheet shows CKE... as the VIN, and "K"10514 as the model, and also shows "front wheel lock hu", so the front axle was there...

Have you heard of such a thing?

The VIN on the frame is right under the alternator.

Thoughts?

I believe in 72 only, the C would be for chev, and a T would be for GMC as the first letter. Otherwise it would be a regular VIN number after that.

Not just 72.
For some reason, I have the SPID for a 69 Blazer. Mine is a 72. Anybody have CKR189Z161081 and need this SPID?

Oops. Faux spid with the wrong font. Someone's tampered with the VIN plate too.

Re: Blazer SPID thread?
 
I wonder if they're forged or cast? I'm thinking cast that's why they're backwards. They're not on the spid?

It’s rare. I’m skeptical that’s an example but I didn’t see a SPID. I believe topless examples lacked vent windows, door glass, and window cranks. Of course, these items might have been added over the intervening decades. I don’t see stake pockets on the bedsides - filled in perhaps?

Spid of white topless. Never seen (Side door glass option)?
Top not listed, real deal I guess?

Nice. Thanks for posting. That looks legit. Would be great to see more photos.
