I'm not familiar with decoding VIN's on newer trucks. Can it be done?
I have a slight chance to buy a '04 with what's supposed to be a 6.0 (I haven't seen it, it's about 3 hours away.) Just wondering if the VIN will tell what engine/trans it has.
Just in case, here's the VIN:
1GBGC24U94Z175495
I just want the motor/trans out of it to put into my 53
thanks
