Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

My father always carried a fuel can and long jumper cables on his car hauler, especially in the winter loading up at the GM Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec assembly plant. Cold soaked cars never went very far or long on the factory fill.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Approx 3 gallons on initial fill.

We will occasionally run a vehicle out of gas shuttling it between the various repair sites within the factory.

Here's mine. Everything on this is on the truck right now. I will probably replace the AM radio with a modern one (not cutting the dash), and I'm willing to lose the toolbox to fix the dent on that side. The plan is to keep it very close to stock.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

I have uploaded this before but just thought to show it again. I updated the options to better match my truck.

Here's a combo you don't see every day - white/med olive with BLUE interior. It's on ebay now...

Here's Homer's SPID. Got an error though. Calls out a 133" wheelbase and it's definitely a 155" with an additional 18" sliver installed by the coachbuilder.

1972 Chevy C10 short box - does this SPID look original or reprinted??

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Looks original to me

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Just curious because I talked to the PO about a year after I bought it for the first time (he had a 3rd party sell it for him) and he thought the frame had been swapped in the process but I think he was confused.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Never saw the Model = before so I question it. But I am no expert, ask Bruceman!

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Looks good to me. Format and options are all correct for the model. 250/3OTT short fleetside. Where it curled up you can see the original dark blue paint too.

If there is a question, as always, check the VIN plate against the SPID and the frame numbers (2A114985). Of course the rivets on the plate need to be rosetts.

" = " is very common on SPIDs.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Thanks for the response. I was hopeful but with the spacing differences and the "=" I was just curious. After replacing the body mounts I thought it was right but man you just never know. This truck is definitely not 100% original.

What is the poly wrapped air cleaner?

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Nice truck- has some unusual options- never saw a winch option before

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

It's an air cleaner element with an additional closed cell material wrap; to function as a "heavy duty" air cleaner option.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

So it the filter fits inside the stock housing?

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Yes.

K

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

I believe it was foam wrapped around the air filter element but I don't know for sure. I've been trying to find out myself.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Yes, it is.

I guess I didn't explain that very well.

Does anyone have any information on Base Equipment?

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

St Louis had some real issues changing over their SPId format in 72. Many of the early units have similar lines like these that actually don't belong on the SPID. In a nutshell it is the base build for that model. Since the layout is generally only for options above the base build you can see the confusion. Most of these types of codes are seen only on the build sheet like the Z13 GVW plate or the D99 paint divider molding. They even have the description wrong on that one. 551 is Med Bronze and White in a Conventional Two-Tone. The four blank descriptions are for your tires. To wrap it up the SPID itself nothing special just a formatting anomaly. Overall the truck was a pretty typical K10.
