Re: Blazer SPID thread?
Here is the SPID to my 72 Blazer. Factory 2wd. Can someone tell me exactly what the California Assembly and California Processing options consisted of? I know that it was something that vehicles that were destined for California had to have but what was it exactly? I guess that means my Blazer was sold originally in California? I ended up getting it from a board member in Louisiana who found it in Central Georgia. That is all the history about it I have though.

Re: Blazer SPID thread?
Nice blazer evan. Highly optioned. How's the interior. Being a z84 truck I always like seeing the insides
Thank you for the compliments!! I wish it had the plaid highlander (that's the z84 right?)seats still in it but looks like the previous owner/owners recovered or got some different seats. These are a couple pics of the first night I got it about a year and a half ago |

Re: Blazer SPID thread?
Here is mine seems to open some questions for me.
I dont see the CST listed like on some others. Is mine pretending to be a CST? PG ![]() |

Re: Blazer SPID thread?
I believe what makes it a custom is the Cheyenne equipment package. You have a nice custom truck!

While it suggests your truck was sold new in California it may have be sold in a bordering state as well. Many dealers whose sales areas would cross state lines ordered stock units with the emission package to maximize sales potential.

Re: Blazer SPID thread?
locking hubs not on this one, another thing, seems a lot of blazers/jimmys had factory skid plates.

Thank you SS Tim for shedding some light on what my California Processing "Option" means.

Re: Blazer SPID thread?
I wish I had a picture of my old 72's SPID... It was loaded but I don't recall ever reconciling its equipment with the sticker.
My recently acquired '69 CST doesn't have the right glovebox door so no SPID for me. It's a very interesting thread though and I've enjoyed it. I do have a few questions after reading here though. *I assumed at first that "removable top" and "auxiliary top" would be the same thing, maybe just from different plants- except I see that they have different codes. *Does there seem to be any order to the way rpos are listed? It won't be "real" but I'd like to do my best to replicate a SPID with the options/colors that I see on mine *I don't recall seeing a SPID listing cruise control. Was that an original option on 69-72s? *I had at least one more question but I'll have to come back and edit it--- Thanks guys- Greg |

Getting a reasonably accurate replacement SPID made is a matter of knowing what you have, what to look for in the vehicle's original build and referencing known SPIDs from the same plant and serial range. To me a guesstimated SPID based on about the level of verification most people would do for a for sale ad is worse than no SPID at all. The only listing I show for factory installed cruise RPO K30 is for a 70 C/10 (4x2 Blazer) with a 350. While there were dealer cruise kits they would not be reflected on the SPID. If you have another Blazer related SPID question, don't edit but simply post a new reply. Edits don't trigger a subscription notification.

Re: Blazer SPID thread?
Thanks SS Tim- looking back to post 90 (and others) there's an auxiliary top listed and it has a different rpo number. That's the type I was asking about. I still assume it's just a plant difference because I've not seen a different top---

Re: Blazer SPID thread?
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...9&postcount=90
Its a Z58 White top as expected. Go by the RPO number first, then worry about the decription. In this case its the same option different description. If you go to: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...&postcount=216 This is a very early build 72 from St Louis. It also has the Z58 RPO code for a white top without description and on another line CB8 "REMOVABLE TOP" which is actually the build conversion code. It like several other lines on this early 72 SPID are generally not listed and are found only on the actual build sheet. St Louis again had a lot of issues with SPIDs. Also if you right click on a post number, it will give you a single post thread link code that is easy to paste into a reply when refering to a specific example.

Re: Blazer SPID thread?
So is there a different code between the single wall top and the double wall top?
Is there a way you can tell the difference from the SPID?
