  Working on q 1946 pickup. VIN number stamped on the frame is 1GC228238. Is this a 1946 VIN? Does it mean 6 cylinder?

Thanks

  The 1G would mean 6 cylinder. I suspect that the C is for commercial or a year designator. The numbers are the sequential production numbers.

  G is six cylinder but I think C could be the assembly plant?

  C stands for commercial vehicle. The serial number falls in the 1946 six cylinder range.
