Well, that is kinda frustrating, but at least you know what you have now.

Not too many of "our" trucks are still the same way they came from the factory. Seems to me a newer vehicle can recreate the original configuration from the VIN. I went to get some paint for the silver on the bottom half of my 95 blazer and they told me it didn't come with silver on the bottom! The VIN said it was all blue.

I kinda doubt that it goes back that far.

Good luck
