X14 rare option code?
This is from a 1970 C20 Custom in Sweden I looked at last weekend.
It was sold as a new truck in Sweden and maybe there is some other options than the X14 Export Preparation that is rare. It is a C20 and it have coils in the rear, I belive I´v heard only the C10;s came with coils and C20;s with leafs. I tried to post a picture of the glove box door sticker in this thread but I´m not sure if it will be attached. |

Touch up paint???
Speedometer equipment? KPH instead of MPH? Man Can Base Equip?? That's an interesting option sheet.

cool option sheet
526 Med Gold is listed as a series 40-90 paint color (for 71) Q20 16 X 6.00" for tube type tires, available on C20 models with 10.00-16.5 rear tires only (that's what the book says, but somehow doesn't seem to apply here) Pictures of the truck and speedometer?

This truck is made in Canada and exported to Sweden, there is a label on the door post saying it´s a Canada made truck.
I think most if not all trucks sold by GM here in Sweden were Canadian trucks, maybe the Canadian trucks had metric gauges from start, I don´t know. The truck is not mine, I have some more pictures but I´m not sure if the kilo speedo is visible on any of them. The truck is not very nice but I will post some more pictures of it later today when I get home from work. Thanks Mats.. |

Canadian trucks did not come with a kilo speedo - we were not metric until 76 sooo all of our CDN trucks are MPH. I'd love a nice clear pic of your speedometer - I'd like to redo my speedometer in KPH but I'm not sure of the gradients or the range. THANK YOU!

I am really sorry but I don´t have any pics of the kilo speedo and the truck is not mine and it is located about 3,5 hours away.
The truck is for sale but I´m not sure what I´m going to do, the owner is asking SEK 29,000 ($ 4,000) and I think about SEK 20,000 ($ 2,700) could be a fair deal, for the moment he wasn´t willing to reduce the price at all. I post some other pics of it for now and if I get a chance to take pics of this one again or any other truck with kilo speedo I promise to take some good pics and post them on the board. Tank you all for replaying Mats.. |

Rear wheel house opening "customized" not too good looking I think.

Another "Custom trick" you can see the extensions of the seat backs. Not too good looking those either.
