Re: Friends truck
Your Buddy has a real nice ride there Leon with cruise control to boot!
This brings up a question since I don't see it listed on the SPID and me not knowing. Was cruise control added at the dealer? I have only seen one truck personally with cruise control, and the owner said he got it off a car (same era) in the wrecking yard but it was the same basic unit. |

Re: Friends truck
Regarding cruise control. I had a 71 Super with cruise and it wasnt listed on the spid but it was defiantly a factory cruise, it had the dash switch etc. I started a thread about it ages ago and here is the answer about listed on spid vs not listed. So mine was dealer installed.
JQ-72 In 68-70, "Speed & Cruise Control" was listed on the SPID as RPO K30. In 71-72, cruise control was only available through the dealership and was not listed on the SPID.

Judging by the rearview mirror cover and the perforated headliner i would say an early 69 model. It is also missing the cargo light which was also an early 69 CST thing.

Re: Friends truck
The White Grille is not stock [after MY 1967]. But it looks cool.
I was thinking of doing something like that myself, after a wheelchock came out and I'd forgotten to set the parking brake or leave it in gear, and the Jimmy rolled forward 25 feet and smacked my 8 foot fleetside trailer at a 45* angle. Does anyone have a GMC VIN decoder?

Re: Friends truck
69?
I noticed that painted grill first, I have been wanting to do that with my own GMC but didn't know how it would look. I like it!

Thanks! He is going to pull his small Airstream trailer with it, so it is a working truck for sure.

Re: Friends truck
Agree its a nice truck and I love the color combo. If I bought thT truck that grill would be chromed immediately just like I did with the white front front bumper on my 72.
