Guest Musgrave Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Hello EveryoneI just bought a 1938 Dodge Brothers Pick up truck. I need help with finding any information on the Vin. There doesn't seem to be any info on Canada made trucks for that year. The only number I can find is R198412 I really would like to know haw many of these truck were made. This is my first project that I'm attempting. I'm calling it time therapy to escape the real world. Thanks to everyone that can help. Neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzcarnerd Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 You could start here - http://t137.com/registry/help/decode.php In that era there was no such thing as a VIN, just a serial number. If you have an engine number this might be useful - http://t137.com/registry/help/otherengines/otherengines.php You could try the Dodge Truck section of this forum.

Guest Musgrave Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Thank you for the info, I've tried the decoder already with no luck. But I will try to find the engine number today & work with that. I also will find the dodge section of this forum. I was not a where there was one, seeing that I just signed up last night. Thank you very much for your help.
