Re: Friends truck

Your Buddy has a real nice ride there Leon with cruise control to boot!

This brings up a question since I don't see it listed on the SPID and me not knowing.

Was cruise control added at the dealer? I have only seen one truck personally with cruise control, and the owner said he got it off a car (same era) in the wrecking yard but it was the same basic unit.

I don’t know the answer but the other Day I was at the parts house getting a brake light switch for my 1970 and was asked if it had cruise.
Probably just an across the board question , just caught me off guard

Re: Friends truck

Regarding cruise control. I had a 71 Super with cruise and it wasnt listed on the spid but it was defiantly a factory cruise, it had the dash switch etc. I started a thread about it ages ago and here is the answer about listed on spid vs not listed. So mine was dealer installed.

JQ-72

In 68-70, "Speed & Cruise Control" was listed on the SPID as RPO K30. In 71-72, cruise control was only available through the dealership and was not listed on the SPID.

Looks good.
Judging by the rearview mirror cover and the perforated headliner i would say an early 69 model. It is also missing the cargo light which was also an early 69 CST thing.

Re: Friends truck

The White Grille is not stock [after MY 1967]. But it looks cool.

I was thinking of doing something like that myself, after a wheelchock came out and I'd forgotten to set the parking brake or leave it in gear, and the Jimmy rolled forward 25 feet and smacked my 8 foot fleetside trailer at a 45* angle.

Does anyone have a GMC VIN decoder?

Re: Friends truck

69?

I noticed that painted grill first, I have been wanting to do that with my own GMC but didn't know how it would look. I like it!

Re: Friends truck

What a cool truck.
I’m a fan of the black and white two tone with the red and black interior.
Sharp!

Thanks!

He is going to pull his small Airstream trailer with it, so it is a working truck for sure.

Re: Friends truck

Agree its a nice truck and I love the color combo. If I bought thT truck that grill would be chromed immediately just like I did with the white front front bumper on my 72.
