1970...or not??

[Underwoj]

Has anyone seen this style door panel before? It's in my 70 c10 but can't find a model online anywhere?

[hugger6933]

that is a 72 door and panel. you can tell as the 72's had plastic panels and the counter sunk screw in the door for the vent widow/ window track thingy[actual body shop term]. Jim

You can't find the molded armrest style at all?
you can't find this style on a 70 trim parts page?
You can find molded armrest door panels but not this plain rib style?

The door itself is also appears to be from a 72.

[Underwoj]

Ugh - I was questioning the door panel but I guess I got my answer. The previous owner must have replaced with 72 doors

That's sucks

[colgad]

Or the cab has been changed and the vin plate swapped!

[flashed]

72 doors are hard to come by (Good Doors) so if you want the correct ones for your truck someone would gladly trade you for them .I personally like the 72 doors and panels better.

[Underwoj]

Noooooo!! How wld I know??

[72freak]

check your VIN. see if its a 72 cab.

[litew8]

Check to see where the rear view mirror is located. Is it glued to the windshield or screwed to the roof? 72's are on the windshield.

[Underwoj]

It's screwed to the hood

[GASoline71]

Then you sir have a 1970 cab with '72 doors.

My 70 c20 has 70 drivers door and 72 passenger door. Live and learn.

How about more pics of your truck ?

[gs-xnr]

I like the 72 panels. Do they need moidifcation to fit my 69 doors?

[Ironangel]

Go to classic parts.com they have the 72 panels...It appears they only have black in 72' but show red in previous years...They do have upholstery dyes & paints as well. Might give them a ring to verify the availability of red panels for a 72

[hugger6933]

I'm pretty sure you would just buy them in black and then dye them yourself or send them out to have it done if your not able or don't have the time. Jim

[Underwoj]

Here's what she looks like inside. Thinkin of doin black door panels - what yawl think??

[special-K]

I like it as is,but black would also go with the program you have there. It appears your '72 door panels are already dyed/painted. That's not quite the color the original interior would have been. Yours are the base door panels and I'm sure whatever you find offered will be the an imitation of the fancier scroll type. Unless I'm wrong,those made are close but no cigar. You can dye yours,find black originals,or change the door handle and window winder posts to the shorter 67-71 type and get proper '70 door panels.

[flashed]

It looks very nice like it is but would look good black also.

I'd love to know what model that shifter stick is made for. My Hurst shifter stick doesn't bend that far back over the bench seat. Mine is more upright and doesn't have the gentle bend that one does. Anyone have any guesses?

[derotoreut]

best I can tell it looks like it has the proper throttle pedal set up for a '70. Is there a door pillar vent on the driver side? Wouldn't have one on a '70 truck.
