Parts book
 

Can someone post up a pic of the correct parts manual for the 60-66 Chevy trucks? Is there a separate one for just trucks, or is it combined with car parts? The GMC manual is BIG and mine is not illustrated. But it also dips back into the 50's trucks.

Question Tony - I've heard you mention the Silver Book several times. What specifically is in the book? Is it part numbers, or interchanges, or a master listing of authorized accessories? Just curious. Thanks.

Re: Parts book
 

I have most of those for my years. But I don't have a Chevrolet parts book. So who's got a real parts book?

Re: Parts book
 

Anyone got scanned manuals for c10's and 20's ? I
bought a glove box manual on "Fleabay". Scared to touch
it as it dried out and the pages break if you bend em
too much. The spine won't take many more open's and
closes. At least it was only 15 bucks I got ripped for...

K-Ten,

what are you looking for? An interchange list? The actual parts book like they used at the dealership? I can only imagine that the parts dealers books would only be available used.

American Classic sells an interchange manual, which is just a bunch of pages of descriptions and part numbers. They also sell this:

Chevrolet Truck Parts Manuals CD, 4 volumes including 1938-64 Body Parts Manual, 1938-64 Chassis Parts and Accessories Manual, and 1946-72 Truck Parts Catalog

I dunno if that is what you are looking for or not tho'. Some other vendors may sell something similar.

It is titled 1966 Silver Book - Engineered Vocational Equipment For Chevrolet Trucks. The "Silver Book" for 1966 Catalog of Engineered Vocational Equipment for Chevrolet Trucks.

Here is the language unside the front cover:

Your double goal in selling Chevrolet trucks is to mke a profit and to build customer good will so they will think first of you when again in need of new trucks. The SILVER BOOK IS DESIGNED ESPECIALLY TO HELP YOU ACHIEVE BOTH OF THESE AIMS.

The SILVER BOOK provides you with a vast fund of information aobut the special equipment that purchasers need to enable a truck to satisfactorily perform a particular job. It tells you about the equipment itself, who manufacturers it, and where it may be obtained.

It covers:

CHEVROLET Truck Specifications
Toppers, Campers and Coaches
Utility Beds, Grain Beds and Farm Bodies
Aluminum Bodies, Step-Vans & Special Needs Equipment
Bumpers & Grille Gauards
School Buses, School Bus Conversions, Ambulances, Crew Cabs & Limos
Air-Ride Seats
Mirrors
Delco-Remy Equipment
Filtering Systems
Fuel Tanks (specifically for heavy-duty models)
Hubs, Suspension Systems & Braking Sysstems
Wheels & Tires
Winches, PTO's & Towing
Snow Plows
Specialized Bodies & Utility Boxes
Fire Trucks, Dump Beds & Garbage Beds

There is a Silver Book for each of the years from '60-'66...I am not sure about the earlier & later years, but I am sure they had them for other years, as well.
