VIN#, Serial#, same…? - Posted by Glen SoCal

Posted by Glen SoCal on September 06, 2005 at 22:25:16:

I received two serial numbers and a Decal number from a park manager for a
dbl wide that I’m looking in to.

I went to the DMV here in CA to check liens and the DMV attendant said that
the numbers I gave him do not show up in their records at all.

He asked me for the VIN # instead. I answered that the Decal and Serials were
all that were available.

He said to get the VIN# and he would be able to pull up the records.

I searched the archives a bit and couldn’t find an answer to this.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks, Glen

In CA, decal numbers are registered with the Housing Authority; VIN
with the DMV. The Housing Authority retreived the name of the lien
holder instantly.
