This is mine. It was removed when painted. 72 with the leaf rear end option.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

I see alot of people have chosen to cover or protect thier VIN number. This is very wise and should be manditory. There are many scams involving misuse of others VIN numbers.

Be very very carefull

Also... at car shows.... cover your Vin number.

when selling your car on the internet, NEVER give out your VIN number or or an image of your title that reveals your VIN number or Title document number.

Too too many scams.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Can't you walk up to most cars these days and just see the full VIN through the windshield anyway?

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

yes but its much more difficult to reproduce those VIN plates and those current vehicles are not so desirable.and often the new vehicles dont sit in a garage for years before you go to register them and find out that somehow your vehicle has ended up sold and registered to another owner in another state.

My 71.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

I have an rpo sheet off my 80'
I realize it doesn't quite fit the year of the group here but I've been looking at some of the sheets posted and they are quite similar.

My question here is am I able to post up my sheet for It?
I need some guidance here on rpos for tires and two more that I have absolutely no idea about. One might be "special paint" not 100%

Thanks.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Here is the one off the '71 K10 I'm getting started on.

New addition.

A silver big block GMC with red interior would a good looking truck!

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Bigdav160,

I think it's going to be a neat project. I got it from a great friend, I hope to pick it up in a couple weeks. It's all there.....motor, trans, all the accessories. Needs a bunch of work, but its a good one to start with, and I think the silver poly with the red/oxblood/burgundy interior is going to be a knockout.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Here is mine. Can anyone tell me what paint this truck was stock?

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

It was obviously a fed govt truck and different agencies were different colors. I can't tell but what color is the inside of the glove box door?

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Black.

Here's an old thread. Looks like it was green from the factory.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Here is a photo of my "Service Parts Identification" plate. Seeing if you guys could help me figure out what the original exterior and interior paint colors are.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Medium blue with a white roof. Either fawn (silver) or blue interior paint. Someone else may know which. Blue upholstery. Good one.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

quick search for 67 rpo 541 found this, good start and good luck!

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Wow, thanks for the quick replies 68bowtie and Killer Bee. I am looking to freshen up the paint on the wheels and interior. This info has helped a bunch.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Here's mine from a 68 I just picked up.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Anyone ever seen one without a model number on it? Mine doesn’t have a model number and I would really like to know the model number for my truck but idk why mine doesn’t have it

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Mr. Obvious,

Maybe, it's under that blotch of red paint. Try decoding the VIN.

http://outintheshop.com/vin_decode.html

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

I have decoded the vin and it tells me it is a 67 2wd V8 1/2 pickup built in St. Luis, the last numbers of the vin is just the sequence number I believe, telling me what number it was down the assembly line correct? What I’m really wanting to find out is if my truck originally was a swb/lwb and was it a step or fleet bed. But as far as I can figure out the only way to tell is with the model number

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Yeah, nobody needs to see his serial number. I posted mine with the whole SPID, but I'm not worried about theft. I'm betting even money that my attorneys are as good or better than anyone trying to get my truck for their own. It would appear that the wheelbase info is scrubbed off the top of the SPID, or maybe the first few characters yield that information. I forget.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Mr. Obvious, you have a St. Louis built truck. They wrote the model number on the firewall. Do you have any original firewall markings left? Check the passenger side firewall in the engine bay. They also wrote the model number on the rear frame cross brace. It would be upside down and backwards if still there. Crawl under the rear bumper and check the rear cross brace. Early 1967 St. Louis trucks did not have Model numbers or Wheelbase on the SPID. Later 67 St. louis trucks did.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Thank you bruceman that helps a lot. Unfortunately my frame has been blasted and painted and I just finished repainting my firewall last week, but with that info I may be able to find it in old pictures

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

This is a truck I have in storage. It was dark in there and hard to get a good shot.

Unusual...69 base truck with factory buckets.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Going to have a look at this one.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

I just purchased my truck and I'm still torn between totally stock or upgrading a few of the major systems for safety and convenience. My question is, the truck has power steering and power drums but they are not listed as options. Does that mean they were added or were those standard equipment in 1970?

I'm still learning Chevy trucks and need the help of experts. Thanks!

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

My truck had power drum (upgraded to disc) brakes; it is not listed on the SPID. N40 power steering, however, is listed.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Power brake boosters were offered as an accessory and commonly installed.
Since neither J47 P/B nor N40 P/S are listed on your SPID they were added at some point.
But the brakes were possibly dealer installed.

Notable factory options:
SpecialTwo-Tone with White roof and lower body/rockers.
Chromed front and rear bumpers, all so often added now.

Plus of course its a factory V8, SWB Fleetside!
