1990 regular cab SWB square?

OK this dude swears he has a 1990 1/2 ton SWB square body. Is this possible? Did they make them in mexico? The VIN starts with a 3. ?? Its for sale.

Heres the VIN. 3GCEC3OLOLM113246

Can anyone decode it?

Thanks

First digit of 3 = Mexican made.

Re: 1990 regular cab SWB square?

Here's another example I took a pic of a few months back in MX. I go to MX often and would like to drive one back some day. Problem is trucks get used as trucks in MX so they hold their value.

Re: 1990 regular cab SWB square?

Factory custom! How'd they know back then that we'd be putting those grilles in our pre-88s?

Here is a brochure for '88 "Customs y Cheyennes". And how about the "Hunter"?

Re: 1990 regular cab SWB square?

oYes,and check put the door panels on that red one. It also looks like it has a 5spd (NV3500?). I see where all the 73-78 bedsides went. Look at those '88s. But,the tail end is different,so they're not "our" bedsides. They even have 67/68 painted hubcaps on the Custom...how retro is that?
