I have had no luck yet finding a decoder for this serial # <span style="font-weight: bold">9143401699</span> . I posted earlier for help identifying the truck, thank you for the help Now the serial number? here is a link to a pic of the data plate http://img515.imageshack.us/my.php?image=48033qc5.jpg Thanks in advance

Sorry, I should have mentioned it was Canadian. Probably why the numbers are hard to look up. Not to mention it seems like a '49 from the US info I've seen sofar. The hoist does make it a bit more collectable/interesting I think. Thanks again for the help, its appreciated

From what this guide indicates the truck may actually be a '49? http://www.chevytrucks.org/resources/adguide.htm Advance Design Identification Guide This is not intended to be a comprehensive list, just a simple guide to help you identify Advance-Design (1947-1955) Chevy pickups. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1947 Second Series - New styling, 5-slat horizontal grille. Vents on side of cab. No vent windows in doors. "Thriftmaster" or "Loadmaster" badging on side of hood. 1948 - New foot-operated parking brake. 1949 - Inner bar of grille painted silver-gray.

It has 4 stake pockets and a four speed trany. The fenders lift with the box. Havn't had it running yet, it's been stored a long time. Really only slight surface rust so its very restorable. Original tires. Mice were living in the cab but didnt damage the seat covers, just the stuffing. Cant safely go in the cab untill disenfected. I cant seem to locate a decoder for the serial number, usually there are letters in it. Wonder why the model number on the data plate is 1434 and not 3600/3800? Thanks for the info
