I found something in the dash that labled it as the pewter color. But hey give me the ok and so did two state troopers. So nothing i can really say jus happy they couldnt confirm it to be stolen. we figured the truck my have been roled and they had to replace the roof and didnt add the sun roof back in it. And thanks everyone!

So i would be kinda pissed off if i bought a truck that has been totaled and not told about it. You basically have no info on the truck, LOL and would have seemed to pay fair market value for it. Kinda strange.

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.
By law if it's officially Salvaged. It should be noted on the Title as Salvage or Reconstructed vehicle in most states. Ever state is different. I am not going to get into the legality's but unless it was never reported. There should be some sort of record of an accident or theft at least through the Police Dept. That alone should show up on a car fax report.
Glad you at least got it sorted out with the Local Authority's
Good luck with your new truck!!! Keep us posted if you play with it and modify it.
