CST or not?? - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Was A/C a CST option only or could you get a/c regardless??

Will the option sheet on the glovebox show if the rig was a CST model??

My 72 has regular sidemarkers, but no emblems. It's been repainted, so I figure the sidemarkers were replaced, and the emblems left off (????)

Ya,the option sheet on the glove box will list the CST option.

You could get A/C on any trim package. It's about the only real fancy option on my '71.

Also, not all CST trucks had AC. My first '72 K5 was a CST without air. My current '72 K5 is a non CST with air.

Thanks all.

I'll check the option sheet

the only requirement for air was that you opted for the hard top. If you got the hard top and went with the A/C, you got the "HD radiator and a 42 amp generator"

Also, agreed, the options sticker does reflect the CST package, if it does not, then it isn't or someone switched glove boxes from a non CST.
