Cst, Nos, Swb, Lwb, Oem ??? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

69 XCamper · 08-02-2003, 10:33 AM

I think I've figured out a few of these abbreviations used on this board. But a couple still have me stumped.

Glossary definitions please...

CST=
NOS=
SWB=
LWB=
OEM=

WHT=What the Hell?

jhow66 · 08-02-2003, 10:45 AM

CST=Custom Street Truck
NOS=New Old Stock
SWB=Short Wheel Base
LWB=Long Wheel Base
OEM= Orignal Equipment Manufacter
WHT=When(I) Have Time (?)

69 XCamper · 08-02-2003, 11:01 AM

Sorry, typo on WHT. Should be WTH...meaning "What the Hell!"

Anyone else got any to add to this list? Here two more...

SB=Small Block
BB=Big Block

BBL = Barrel ... but I can't see why for the life of me.

This abbreviation is used when talking about carbs but it is also used when discussing gun barrels. It has always stumped me. There is only ONE "B" in barrel!

Anybody have an explanation for this one?

SEVEND2 · 08-02-2003, 03:40 PM

are all 67-72 trucks concidered CST's?

GreenMystChevy · 08-02-2003, 04:14 PM

I believe CST is a trim option. The ones with trim top and bottom are CST. Could be mistaken though.

The CST was a option in 67,68,69,and 70. In 1971 the CST package was changed to the Cheyenne package. In my opinion all 67-72 trucks are custom sport trucks.

da-burb · 08-02-2003, 10:32 PM

NIB= new in box

In '71 and '72, you could still get CST trim on K/5 Blazers (2 and 4wd). I believe the 67-72 'era' is considered to be the Custom Sport Truck era, like the Advanced Design and Task Force preceding it.
