Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Nice 71 trucks diesel burner! Just installed a Chip Flyer SPID

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Tigger, I guess I haven't been paying attention. Educate me on the 149" WB.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Thanks tigger, I'm curious about the 149" wheelbase too

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

It’s a truck l built back in 1996. I added 22” to the cab to make a extended cab, 22 plus 127 equals 149.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

1972 C-10 Custom Deluxe Highlander SPID. We just purchased recently. We knew very little originally but thanks to this site we are learning so much.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Figuring out how to upload pictures🙄

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

I have a question for the experts, why does my 71 C10 show L47 as 396 cu inch and others of the same year have L47 as 400 cu inch(example post 864)? My 71 also has 396 fender badges and all sources I find show 400 for 71-72. Thanks, Mark

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

This is a 1970 that I found behind a Red Barn in an Orchard. Long story short is that I get to go pick it up for free when the deep mud dries up this summer.

Here is the SPID, another post I did we were able to figure it may have had a 307. It has a locking glove box (9878HA IP Door Lock), Spare Tire carier in the bed(P13), and TH350(M49). It has 4:11 gears(H04) and was a farm truck all its life. I spoke to the owners daughter and she remembered learning how to drive in the truck when she was 13. The owners husband bought the truck new and kept it at the orchard its whole life. It was parked where I found it in 1992. It has 93 tags on the plate!
I have been trying to figure out what I want to end up with and I am stuck on the color. It's white (everything is white) with no trim, has white metal door panels, and 622 Gold Vinyl Trim? Would that just be the seat color?

I cant find the factory color anywhere. It's listed as 1523FC Special Paint?

With everything white on this truck, I would tend to believe the paint code would be 521?

Anything I have found for 523 is 1969 Silver Poly.

Can anyone help?

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Here is mine. Interesting it has auxiliary battery and camper wiring, but there is no aux battery tray. When I got the truck, there was a battery in a box in the bed, wired up to one of the junction points, no relay.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

What is that spid from Killer? You get something you didn't tell us about?

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Killer Bee, that looks like the spid from that red longhorn that was on CL and then ebay. If so, then congrats on a great score!!!!

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

that's the one.. I got it not far from top dollar in present condition but it sure has a lot of potential ;)

I'll fill ya'll in on the details soon, I think there's a longhorn thread around here somewhere..

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

My latest one. It's borderline scrap but short 4x4's aren't too plentiful.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Here’s mine, 70 c10 127” wheelbase had since high school, original block till I slung a rod at 6k plus

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Nicely equipped GMC but a granny 4 speed truck..

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Every time I see that truck! ;)

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Heres one I just bought, It's a 1972 swb fleetside. I also have the original bill of sale, it was 2600 new in 1972. No options at all...

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Now THIS is a unicorn! This truck ('68 K20) is on the craigslist for sale thread. 327 three speed on the column (?!) positraction FRONT axle (?!)

Was it possible to order bucket seats without the CST package?

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

kind of a SPID / build sheet question and haven't seen a build sheet thread :confused:

posting this here as well to see if anyone knows about the wheel/tire size called out on this build sheet..

https://dl.dropbox.com/s/usi5jc8l1qa...46725.jpg?dl=0

thanks to Mrs. Bee, managed to get enough hands in the back of the seat to remove the other build sheet in tact :clap:

https://dl.dropbox.com/s/2stu28nfel6...6x600.jpg?dl=0

this afternoon I managed to overlay them to get as complete a picture as I can without damaging them..

https://dl.dropbox.com/s/9708ww4wfnl...6x600.jpg?dl=0

so first question, anyone know if the original tire size listed as 750X16X8 on build sheet were 16"?

there is no tire size listed on the SPID of this truck so not sure if there was a standard size that wouldn't be listed?

https://dl.dropbox.com/s/m9cwjkhxgi39ww0/SPID.jpg?dl=0

I've seen 16.5 expressed 165 in SPIDs, not sure about build sheets..

for instance, the other 71 longhorn SPID calls 950X165X8 which I assumed were 16.5"

https://dl.dropbox.com/s/1ts9wns39sf...26870.jpg?dl=0

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

That call out is for a 7.50 x 16, 8 ply tire

The other is a 9.50 x 16.5, 8 ply tire

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

thanks Joe! so they were a tall, skinny farm style tire, I like it!

but I was afraid of that since the truck came with 16.5s on it, ugly rusty ones that the flipper painted 'once over rust' :rolleyes:

where o where could the original wheels be? swapped onto something they kept in the barn I bet :lol:

so factory 16" wheels were available in 71? do the wheel codes in block 58-59 identify size or width?

and while were at it, what hub caps were CB4 in block 70?

for that matter, is there a code break down for these blocks?

https://dl.dropbox.com/s/elqis07l4x1...tires.jpg?dl=0

thank you for any and all help!

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Here's mine. 70 C10

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Here is an interesting one from a 67.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

LOW OPTION ENTRY! This was a 71 GMC I saw today. His Dad's truck bought new. I was surprised to see 'leaf spring' as I thought all GMC's were leaf spring standard? If so, It really has no options. Just over 100k mi and pretty much original.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

If the condition of the spid is an indication of the rest of the truck, then it must be very clean. I always thought GMC's were all standard leaves too.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Here is my latest, nothing fancy. Its going to take four trucks to build one haha.

Re: SPID Picture thread?
 

Here is my from my recently purchased 1972 C10 Cheyenne.
