Now that's good question I've never seen before. I bet member Keith Seymour can answer that one..

646870SS · 12-31-2019, 05:54 PM

Reason I am asking is that I have a Baltimore truck with a SPID that has the Cheyenne Super (4x4) markings on it.

52napco · 12-31-2019, 06:50 PM

Post a picture of the spid

646870SS · 12-31-2019, 07:20 PM

Here you go. Maybe this will help?

**68bowtie** · 01-01-2020, 02:11 AM

Font looks close to me too, but something just looks visually wrong. Maybe too clean.

646870SS · 01-01-2020, 11:49 AM

I bought this back in 2000 cause it was a cool short bed 4x4 - really didn't know about a SPID till I started digging into the restoration. Was advertised as a 72 Chevy 4x4. Everything on the truck was original and had not been apart before. Truck sat for over 18 years in garage - who or what determines what info gets printed on a SPID? I have been looking at others and they seem to be all over the place with specs, terminology and even the way some of the typing is done. What is the E81 code? After I discovered this site and all the helpful people on here, this has been a great resource! No matter what this truck is - I am not going to portray it as something it is not. Just looking for some clarification.

I thought I had posted a pics and spid of my 71 C30 Cheyenne Super on here but I cant find it. And I cant find in my board gallery. Ill post pics of the outside eventually, not anything that exciting to look at though.

Here is the spid at least, very similar to Joes 72 option wise. It does have the correct 71 cruise control. I think I may put spots on it, I have a right and left with the little GM logo on the little tag.

Looks like it originally had the paint stripe but its gone now. Id prefer dark olive paint with a white roof, but for once Im not going to tear a truck apart. Just going to play with it as I drive. Flatbed is first up.

Buckets are gone and the pass through its being fixed as we speak. I just looked at it today. Im putting in a bench instead. Correct cover coming soon I hope.

Very nice SPID. I think the white with olive interior is a stunning combo personally. Would love to see how your cab pass thru is being repaired, sounds like a good project/build thread candidate...

A couple examples below. the bucket interior is Pete's ol Beaver C30.

52napco · 05-10-2020, 08:25 PM

I just purchased the Super Custom Camper on the Craigslist thread that is almost an exact twin to yours.

Its the lower pass through version. He just took a patch out of another truck. Im putting the gas tank back behind the seat. The provisions were there for the filler neck, they just had a funny plug in there since it used tanks behind the rear wheel hung off the frame if I remember correctly.

**jocko** · 05-10-2020, 08:26 PM

Can't wait to see that when it's done Ken. Are you gonna keep the locking ring rims?

**jocko** · 05-10-2020, 08:43 PM

Sounds like a good plan!

**BlazerBill** · 05-13-2020, 03:31 AM

Ken does the White and bronze K20 have a black headliner? Very cool original looking rig.

Its parchment not black

**special-K** · 05-13-2020, 06:51 AM

Everytime I see this thread I wish it was for real YE9s and not just Cheyenne Supers. Where's the GMC love?

Great thread, just finally typed what I've felt since it began. I would have started a thread for real Sierra Grandes only but that would come off as being cocky

THAT is a great point Tim! I did not mean to exclude at all - as the one who started the thread, all 4-eyed YE9 brethren are absolutely welcome! Or feel free to start the GMC thread as well, we won't think you're cocky! But I sure think it would be nice to have ALL YE9s here in one place to see any similarities/differences.
