Cst, Nos, Swb, Lwb, Oem ???
I think I've figured out a few of these abbreviations used on this board. But a couple still have me stumped.
Glossary definitions please... CST= NOS= SWB= LWB= OEM= WHT=What the Hell?

BBL = Barrel ... but I can't see why for the life of me.
This abbreviation is used when talking about carbs but it is also used when discussing gun barrels. It has always stumped me. There is only ONE "B" in barrel! Anybody have an explanation for this one? |

I believe CST is a trim option. The ones with trim top and bottom are CST. Could be mistaken though.

The CST was a option in 67,68,69,and 70. In 1971 the CST package was changed to the Cheyenne package. In my opinion all 67-72 trucks are custom sport trucks.
