Thanks everyone! I will add the new SPIDS to the list as soon as I can. I appreciate fellow members keeping this thread going. I have been very side tracked by my project threads and parts hunting so I havent been keeping this thread as up to date as I would like.

Legendary, thanks I will see if I can get that link hooked up to my thread this weekend.

hilandr452 · 01-06-2011, 11:14 AM

Mine is a 71 GMC 3500 longhorn 402. (454 now but have kept the original engine for eventual rebuild).

I like the picture at the lake next to my 73 motorhome.

Hope this is enough info for ya.

Zoomin · 02-12-2011, 01:36 AM

There's been some new members with BB's appearing lately. Add to it guys!

kxnomore · 02-12-2011, 02:07 AM

One owner. Never restored. Never painted- not one spot. No rust. 100% original Ca truck. orig protecto plate, bill of sale, dealer inspection report, and a log book detailing every fill up since 1972. 3/4 ton Cheyenne Super.

**pryorstemmed** · 02-12-2011, 02:15 AM

Here is my 72 converted 4x4.

classicchev · 02-12-2011, 01:46 PM

34000 + miles???? or 134?? THe switch for the auxillary tank above the air vent almost looks factory, I wonder if they would have put it there.

Interesting.

1956cameo · 02-12-2011, 04:19 PM

Thanks for the new additions everyone! I will add them to the list, and give out some more trends on what we are finding.

DannyK · 03-09-2011, 08:36 PM

Dang, there's some sweet lookin' trucks and motors in this thread !

IronDougal · 03-03-2012, 02:29 AM

This is my 2nd 67-72 series but 1st Burb. My boss bought this over 25 years ago for his "Family Boat Hauler" and has recently passed her to me.
As you can see she is a 1/2 ton 2wd Auto with factory tach and a 402 BB ta boot.
Rightfully named her "The Blue October"

Big Daddy 70 · 03-03-2012, 03:20 AM

OK - Noob here...
Just picked up this beauty.... DD project - will have minor mods. I took it to my regular mechanic today - he thinks its a 454 in it - I really don't know how to tell!

**oldgold70c10** · 03-03-2012, 03:23 PM

Here are a couple I've saved off ebay auctions.

**oldgold70c10** · 03-03-2012, 03:26 PM

Another. This was a low-mileage truck. Only 10K miles.

**oldgold70c10** · 03-03-2012, 03:30 PM

One more.

Meatman · 03-04-2012, 11:37 AM

My 68 C20. 89k original miles. Im the 2nd owner. Still have protecto plate. Got it in the fall and Ive yet to get it running, but here soon.

68 C30 that I parted. Nice optioned truck, especially for a C30!

**Already Gone** · 03-04-2012, 03:34 PM

I bought this from the Washington State in January. Its an original 1970 CST Big Block with a TH400 and Posi. Its presently for sale locally.

1956cameo · 03-11-2012, 02:39 PM

Wow! Thanks for all of the new additions. I will add all of the new SPIDS this week and let everyone know what the updated registry is looking like.

MW826 · 04-16-2012, 09:11 AM

Very interesting, like the registry. I'll have to help out the 3/4ton numbers and get some pictures of my '71 Custom Camper up here. Will try to post this week.

70 BB GMC Shortbed w/ buckets...on deck for restoration. Special paint too (70 Chevelle Black Cherry/Ivory)
Any idea how rare this truck is?

69BB396 · 04-16-2012, 04:54 PM

1969 C10 Complete frame-off in-progress......Airdrie AB Canada. 3rd Owner
396BB Turbo 400 3.07 gears all rebuilt and added a little zip where I could haha..

69BB396 · 04-16-2012, 05:07 PM

My spid above is very faded, any fix? I don't think you can get a re-print...
Here's my door plate

riversidebigblockC20 · 04-17-2012, 02:02 AM

Hi,

my 1972 C20 BB is almost finished. It still has the right camper mirror not attached and has some ugly aftermarket chrome wheels. The correct steel wheels with hubcaps should be here within a week and I will also install the right mirror shortly.
Then it's bone stock again (except what's under the hood) and very presentable.

I will post pictures shortly.
