i was wrong.  VIN decode says this thing is 1.5ton 1949, not a 1952

1.5hrs @ DMV strike one

got further than i expected.


rando behind counter says i need another form filled out by past seller since i have not possessed it for over 1 year.   Also claims i need weigh slip, as there are no other 49 chevy pickups registered in NYS right now and it doesnt come up in the vin system

DMV people are idiots


i should have to re weigh because im not changing registration class.  it is a CC truck, but unknown to them status.  i showed him the picture with the plack on the door where i got 6820 from i wrote on all paper work.  supervisor said no good, need weigh slip.  i was stuck anyway with out the 6th form filled out missing MV51B by sellar since i have not had possession more than 1 year.  didnt find that "rule" on the internet. 



has high and low beam head lights, and one tail light hooked up right now.  if i was not 3 beverages in i would have run it down to the CAT scales, but still need paper from sellar so no rush for another lunch trip. 

headlights were also sealed beam 6 volts.  swapped for what was in my CJ7 before i replaced them with new.  all good.

drove out to Pavalion and met sellar for last paper work filled out hopefully.  Cool guy with cool projects in his shop.  5 min from JJs place. 
tucked behind apartment till next week.  Needs to get scaled then a DMV trip for plates. 

needs signal lights finished, horn installed, wipers and probably a new battery to be inspect able.  fun to drive!
