76 c10 finding out options - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

benoit454 · 01-14-2010, 04:19 PM

Guys I used to have a 76 c10 and we had to scrap it along time ago, I still have the title and have been looking up info on what the truck came with. I have decoded alot of the vin online and found out it had a 350 4 bolt stock, when we had the truck it came with a straight 6. I have no way of getting the rpo's which is what I was looking for, other rpo's and options about the transmission and rear end. I know it had a 3 on the tree behind the inline 6, and it had posi, and I mean posi, had clutches and stuff in it and was a 12 bolt.

So my questions are is there a way to find rpo codes online without the spid sticker but having the vin? Or any other info I can find out about the drivetrain?

I'm pretty sure you can't find out any of the options without the build sheet or the rpo sticker in the glovebox.

lol musta overlooked it in the search but thanks

probably not.

I just wondered about the gear ratio and trans. there were a couple 3 speeds in the truck of thoose years with different first gear ratio's and the rear end was posi but never got to count the teeth, it was a pure beat though.
