2000 Chevy Silverado V8 Two Wheel Drive Automatic

I bought a used chevy pickup, and the radio was missing, and was told by the owner that since the radio was stolen ,the truck wouldn't start because of the security system that was factory installed, and was in the radio. can you shed a little light on what all that means?, if anything

That won't keep the truck from starting, but you will have to have the radio programmed at the dealer if you get a replacement GM radio.
