Wish I could remember for sure how I ended up handling a similar situation with my wife's old 69 Impala convertible. Somehow the State of Illinois (where I lived at the time) changed the capital letter 'S' in the middle of the VIN on the title to the numbers '75'. Nowhere near as goofy as your situation, Mitch, but still not the proper format for a Chevrolet VIN of that era. I know I considered taking the car to my local Police Department and having them verify the correct VIN and submit their statement to the State of Illinois, but if I ever did that, I certainly don't remember it. Probably more likely that I just sold the car with the incorrect VIN on the title.
Hope you are stocked up on liquor and/or antacids.
