Which might end up being two trips TOO MANY.
Call first. The State DMV or local Sheriffs office.

It may be expecting a bit much, but when the character is meant to be a one, a scanning result of ell or eye is a mis-scan.
The "IC9" portion is typed.
In any case, the fact remains, no WMIs start with the letter I, and many trailer manufacturers do have WCIs which do start with 1C9, which falls in the range for USA WMIs. (NHTSA, ibid)

Interesting, but when I did a Google search with "IC9 trailer VIN" it came up with a number of scanned PDF's...

Isn't IC9 the prefix assigned to a company in Houston, Tx called Custom Built Trailers?
Don't have a phone number but their address is 512 Nebraska, S. Houston, Tx 77587
To the OP:
1C9 is used by a bunch of manufacturers (they apparently assign smaller blocks to trailer manufacturers). You can get more detail from the nhtsa website. It looks like you need to plug in the first 6 digits.
