- = GMC-only code space for Pennsylvania special equipment. "-" means NO PA
1 = 1971
Z = Fremont Calif. Plant
56303 = Sequence number of that truck, starting from 10000.
I know this is an older post but I was reading thru some of these old threads and now I'm curious as to what "GMC-only code space for Pennsylvania equipment" means? Was this possibly smog equipment? Can anyone enlighten me?
