I have written a lot of articles about this subject in the past, but it seems that there is never enough information out there on this subject, this will cover the thirteen digit codes from the 1960′s era of Chevrolet, and GM cars, so let’s dive in haed first.
As I said the vin codes from the 1960′s are thirteen digits long, any longer it would be a newr car, and shorter, it’s an older car, now that we have that out of the way, let’s get right to the numbers, here we go, when l,ook at a Chevrolet vin tag, the first number you see tells you that it’s a Chevrolet.
This is what a refer to as the division code, as you know GM has a lot of divisions, and if the car your looking at is a Chevrolet that very first number that you should see is a “1″, if you see any other number as the first digit, it’s time to suspect a rip off.
