Re: '72 C10. Or is it?

It seems to me whoever did this work didn't have a title to the 1/2t truck and used a 3/4t VIN-plate that he had a title for. I doubt it's a cab swap, probably all one truck with swapped VIN-plate which is exactly what DMV is looking for. It's what auto thieves do. Not saying the truck is stolen, there are other reasons, but DMV treats it all the same. You can either deal with remedying the rivet issue or go back to seller to renig on the deal citing the illegal situation they put you in. Probably easier to deal with the rivets. The extra registration fee is a minor issue here
