SPID Picture thread?

[roadmaster301]

Yea the misbuild makes sense, that gvw chart always is what got me. I wish I had the protecto plate or build sheet although I thought the never put them in the trucks, but I don't know every thing. I'm still confused as way they didn't list the 18in wheels as an option unless that was a misbuild to.

Well strange things happen. The 18" tire were a dual only size and that spare wheel RPO is not on my list. "...that gvw chart always is what got me." is there something I can help with?

[roadmaster301]

No I'm all good With the info you gave. The chart confused me because it said I need the 11000lb axle for the 14000lb gvw plate. But I didn't have that axle.

Now that I look at it more Q31 is the code for 18x5 wheels I wounder if it meant that it came equipped with them and had a spare.

Don't know what to say 7.00x18 8 ply tires were one of six dual only sizes in 67. They were RPO code R90. The Q31 code (found it...) was for a bare wheel only as was the custom.

Here's one from c60 I was looking at. I thought it was pretty well optioned.

Here is my 67, for some reason the VIN does not match a VIN Code Chart I found on the net.

E V-8 Engine

So does a factory cruise control set up show up on the SPID?

Also I remember some Air Force trucks at a junk yard in Monroe Washington in the 1980's (always short boxes or step sides for some reason) which had some real short SPID. Usually special order and maybe foam seat was on it. Bare basic trucks that were used and then some by the air base.

[SS Tim]

The SPID would show V30 for a factory, production line installed cruise control. But a GM accessory kit installed by the dealer would not.

This is a SPID from a parts truck I bought.....looks like k30 for speed control.

I can't remember if I posted mine up in here or not so here goes....first is my Custom Camper parts truck, second is my BB stepper (thanks Chipflyer) and the third is our 70 GMC BB Sierra Grande (in line for resto...finally got the org title in hand WHOO HOO!)

Ok, I have a question. Were white wall tires standard on any level of truck? I would think Cheyenne and Cheyenne Super, since all the old pics of them they seem to have them, but they're not listed. You see optional tire sizes often, but mine has H78x15 belted white for an optional tire. Is that an optional size, or just the white wall option? My truck is a Custom Deluxe.

[FrankenCub]

Another for the collection. '71 GMC, purty plain :-)
By the way, what's up with the dark green glove box door and medium green body paint ? I've seen some medium green trucks here thave matching glove box. I am going to freshen my girl up and want it to be right. Just seems odd to have the different glove box in this instance, maybe just adding contrast..

GMC painted most glove box doors and cluster bezels keyed to the trim color vs the sheetmetal like Chevy did.

[FrankenCub]

ok, thanks Tim ;-) It will remain that way then.

Did my truck come with carpets

Thanks for pointing that out and you are correct as K01-L99 are engine range upc codes. Now I am trying to figure out where my V came from, hope it is just a typo.

[SS Tim]

No, while your truck does have the RPO Z62 Custom Comfort and Appearance package it did not include carpet. In your case black rubber floor matting is correct. If you have carpet it was added.

[SS Tim]

Both actually. The H78/15B tires were upgrade sizes and sometimes a required option dependng on how the truck was ordered. They were available as blackwall highway and/or on/off road tread and also as white stripe highway tread tires. The RPO PV6 you have is a set of five H78/15B bias belted white stripe highway tires.

As far as I know white stripe tires were not standard on any of these trucks nor at any trim level. However there may have been "specials" that included them but not the Inflation Fighter (YF7) nor the "Highlander Package" trucks (YG6,YG7 or YG8).

BTW: Thanks for leaving the year and plant codes up.

[ls1nova71]

Speaking of Inflation Fighters, here's my old dark blue one.

Also, I don't usually get too worried about posting VIN numbers on SPIDs, but the green one is my own personal truck, so I just blocked off the last part of it. I saw where you had asked for people to leave the first part and I didn't see any harm in that. This truck I don't have anymore, so you get the whole number.

[mrolds88]

Here's mine. 72 BB 3/4 Sierra. Not the most optioned truck. But not bad. Interesting though they used the Cheyenne designation on the SPID.
