Interesting 69 CST part-out...
Parted out this blazer yesterday. Only had a few hours before closing but i did what i could. Notice the CST side markers without any light provisions. I also don't recall ever seeing both transmission option codes for the auto. I also don't recall seeing a BK for the start of the vin. And just to top it off, i think the seats are the 69 only maroon color. Enjoy the pics as it is already squished by now...

Re: Interesting 69 CST part-out...
Funny part is i have tried to buy this over the last several years when it was running and driving. I guess they took out the running gear and put a newer blazer on it. (square body). Here is a pic of a sticker in between the double top also. Last pic is the window frame i saved.

Re: Interesting 69 CST part-out...
Wish stuff like that would come up in my local junkyards. I could have used the rear hatch! If you happen to sell the seats let me know.

Re: Interesting 69 CST part-out...
I thought the same thing.A good hatch is worth $300+.

Re: Interesting 69 CST part-out...
Rear hatch was junk... It was busted all the way through where the handle would have been... Also busted up some by the hinges.

Re: Interesting 69 CST part-out...
the M38 is car RPO talk for TH350 if memory serves... I've seen it on a few truck SPIDs, but never any documentation of it. It was supposed to be the M49 for TH350 or TH400.
That BKS is just weird. |

I think the front clip on the burb was junk also. Look in the second pic and you will see.

Re: Interesting 69 CST part-out...
Sad. My Blazer is also a BKE149S vin, made only a few thousand units before that one at the same plant. The "B" prefix is still a mystery; it is on the doorjamb plate as well:

Re: Interesting 69 CST part-out...
All i can think is the B was for blazer. I didn't look at the door jamb vin to see if it was the same.

Re: Interesting 69 CST part-out...
I have only heard/seen this on '69s. Since the Jimmy came out in 70 it might have never had strange characters added to the VIN.

Re: Interesting 69 CST part-out...
Turns out this one is a Pennsylvania only package... something to do with registration and titling a 3/4 ton truck on a 1/2 ton registration or something....
