Re: 1960 Pick up VIN location
Unless a member currently owns a 1961 up year model truck they can positively prove as having a VIN plate on the kick panel and not on the door frame, I believe it to be correct to say all 1960 year model trucks have the VIN stamped on the wide aluminum kick panel tag and all 1961 up trucks have a separate VIN in the door frame or as you showed in your pics - on the forward door pillar. So an "N" series truck with a forward mounted VIN plate and higher production # is likely a 61 (regardless of what the title says) and a "N" series truck with lower production number and kick panel mounted VIN would be indicative of a 1960 year model. Anyone experienced enough with 60-61 GMCs willing to concur?
