Body/Vin Decoding New Owner

Post by colima »

I am new to this and it was suggested that I post this information here :

General Motors 6823 BODY

ST66-10567WRN Y-2 PAINT

TH753-
W2M

I have no Idea how to “de-code” this , but if the information comes back that this vehicle is part of a investigation of a Tri-State Crime Spree I was never here! ::-):
