The accuracy of the vin's listed in the GL ads are about as accurate as the ads themselves.

Why is it a problem? You can't apply for an SF97 until after pickup so you can verify the vin.

I guess I'm not understanding what you are trying to say.

The VIN shouldn't have "hd" or "gd" in it.

Edit- never mind. I had deuce on my mind for some reason.

It would help if this was in the right forum.

Without some visual indication(picture of the vin, shelter brackets, 1031 body), I would never count on it having the front locker.

The auction closed 3 months ago, did you just pick up the truck?

Your truck looks rust free.

If your unhappy with the truck, maybe you can bring it back to NY(my house) and get a full refund!

the truck is rust free... to bad they moved it around the lot with the fork lift and smashed the passenger side door and bed all in. i just picked it up 7-16 i wanted a nice truck with the front locker thats why i went all the way to ny

I looked at my bid history for that event, I did not bid on that truck!(probably because it had forklift damage)


Lesson learned, preview or get someone to preview for you.

BTW, I can do previews at FT Drum.
