4.0 out of 5 stars Chevy Truck ID Numbers 1946-1972 by Cars and Parts Magazine, November 6, 2001

This review is from: Catalog of Chevy Truck ID Numbers, 1946-1972: Pickup, Suburban and El Camino (Cars & Parts Magazine Matching Numbers Series) (Paperback)

This is a very handy reference book that will break down all the ID numbers including chassis, serial, VIN, engine, plus driveline components like the tranny and rear end, and it will help you ID that unknown truck in the junkyard. Is it a '52 or a '53? Is it a '47 or '49? All these questions are answerable with this reference book. Fairly complete and a good buy for those of you that don't keep this stuff in your head.

Have owned my copy for over 8 years and go to it frequently. Especially when considering interchange parts. Also, recommend , Standard Catalog of Light Duty American Trucks to go with it. A fascinating reference book for the light truck enthusiast.
