Re: Purchased a 1969 C10 Short Bed - Pleasanton, CA
Registering the truck in CA has turned into quite the project in itself.
I took the papers to the DMV to register the truck. They told me I need to bring the truck in for vin verification. I told them it’s not running well enough yet to do that.
They then recommend I call the CHP for the vin verification. Of course the CHP doesn’t do house calls. OK so I hire a private Vin verification company that is mobile and comes to my house. $160 later, the vin is verified.
I go back to the DMV and they indicate that because the vehicle is a pickup, it is classified as a “commercial vehicle” and must be weighed at a certified station 🤦*♂️
Not sure what to do now given the car doesn’t yet run good enough to be mobile under its own power. This is turning into quite the hassle. Thanks California!
