Is your's Victory Red with Leather and a Sun roof??? If so, It is possible that it was a theft recovery. I would look at a Car Fax report to try and determine the history. Car Fax currently shows 17 records for that vehicle. Car Fax is not full proof but if there was a record of it, it will show up. If it was a theft recovery and it was reported, it should show as a Salvaged title on the Vehicle Title.
Yes it is victory red with a tan colored interior. But no sun roof, and the title has been sent off and have not recived it back yet. All i can say is thanks for the help. I will know in the morning cause im meeting up with an GBI officer to check all the hidden vin spots on the truck to make sure they match the title.

Keep us posted please. We wish you the best of luck. If you go to compnine.com and put in the VIN number you provided you will see what it was originally equipped with.

I don't Believe the SS was ever offered with Tan interior so it sounds like there is some thing going on with this vehicle especially since it does not have a sun roof.

Also you mentioned GBI. What office is that???

Yeah compnine as I mentioned previously says it's an SS..... but it may not be your truck. Interior is listed as pewter (RPO 692) and then it definitely says the truck came with a sunroof ( RPO CF5).... So either compnine is wrong ( I doubt it) or your truck was built from something else. Sounds like at a minumum the cab was swapped off another truck.... which could explain the lack of stickers.

Well we couldn't confirm a true vin only thing we got was the vin that matches the title out the ecm. So he told me do not worry about it. And to tell anyone who may pull me over and notice it to call him and two other state troopers to say i have had the truck checked out. We are thinking it may be a salvaged truck.
