Junk yarding tips
I found out that besides gauge clusters their are many parts the series 40-60 trucks have in common with the 10-30 series. Many of you may know this but I didn't till I started looking closer. Here's what I noted:
Doors and door components (inner panels, handles, latches, etc). 3 spoke steering wheels identical to those used in 67/68. Heater controls and radios radio delete plates. Cig lighters and delete plugs. Visors dash pads Series 40 cabs looked to be same as ours though I did not compare that closely. Anyway next time you are browsing, find the 40-60 series and take a look. The 40 series was the closest and I think the 60 series cab had more differences. ------------------ Jeff Jesseman Cheyenne Parts Northeast Franconia, NH 67 Chevy SWB Fleetside 70 GMC Burb 1/2 ton 2wd 72 Chevy Burb 3/4 ton 4x4 Parts bought and sold

I think the C/40 had the front of the door chopped off, along with the front edge of the cab...but I'm not 100% sure.
Good tip though. I check out anything and everything old. Some neat sh!t will bolt on sometimes. ------------------ '69 G.M.C. 350/350. Trying to clean up the left over damage from the Dope-Smokin-Old-Man I've been dubbed the Longhorn Freak/Fanatic/Expert, I just hope I can live up to it. FINALLY got the HORNIAC...a '70 one ton Longhorn with a Pontiac 350/350 and lots of 'personality'. Check out The Longhorn Webite.
