Thanks ckhd.
Is there any way to tell from that number, what options the truck came with? I looked for a build sheet, but it was torn out of the glovebox. I heard there was also one by the gas tank, but I couldn't find one there either. Is there one that is supposed to be in the seat?? I thought I heard mention of that at one time. ------------------ 72 C/10 LWB 2wd 250 inline 6, 3 speed column shift. Soon to have a total facelift.

No,
Unlike the newer VINs, the vins for ours is very limited. Look in the seat back for a build sheet. People have also found them in the bottoms of the seats (between the foam padding and the springs), taped to the gas tank (behind the cardboard/carpet liner), and behind the headliner. The build sheets for my '68 and '72 were in the seat back between the foam and the springs. I couldn't find one for my '72. ------------------ Bowen '68 K20 fleet '69 K10 swb fleet '72 C10 lwb step

If yours was originally sold in Canada (noticed you are in Manitoba), you can get a copy of the build sheet. Don't know what it costs, but it's only for Canadian sold ones. They didn't keep copies in the states.

I can't remember. I called Chevy for a resto pack and while they were on the line, I asked about build sheets. The girl on the phone gave me a phone number to some company in Canada. I called that company and they said that it had to have been originally sold in Canada (which none of mine were).
The number to Chevy is (800) 222-1020 (I think). ------------------ Bowen '68 K20 fleet '69 K10 swb fleet '72 C10 lwb step

The last part...106367, ignore the 1 in it, for some reason, they always did that. so yours was # 6,367. I'll bet, that if you looked on the drivers side door, above the latch assembly, (if it is still there) you'll find your truck is a very early '72. Like December of '71 or so.
