Re: Mountain Find - 1970 GMC K2500
The build sheet is definitely under the seat. I peeked under and its there. But not much of it left. I am going to pull the seat out this weekend and try to get pictures of whats left. I am hoping to get some answers from it.

Re: Mountain Find - 1970 GMC K2500
For the 71 you're building (not building)? Or do you have another one?

Re: Mountain Find - 1970 GMC K2500
I've really slacked off on keeping up with all the nitty gritty factory data. I did know this about the trim. The trim is not an automatic feature of the Custom trim option, but 99% of them did come through with the trim.
There certainly are exceptions to what is in print. The first one of these trucks I owned was a Highlander with upper trim-only, 3spd so no tilt, solid color, and no a/c. Very odd to be a Highlander that had so much of this savings package deleted. It wasn't ordered for the savings but more to get some Highlander features otherwise unavailable

Re: Mountain Find - 1970 GMC K2500
Here are the build sheet pictures or what's left of it unfortunately. Was bought new in Pueblo Colorado from Wilcoxson GMC. That dealership is still in business and in the same location its been in since 1967.

Re: Mountain Find - 1970 GMC K2500
Also found this cool piece of cardboard behind the gas tank. My question is, the cardboard has the dealership name the truck was bought from and why would they put cardboard behind the tank after it was delivered from the factory to the dealership? Or was the tank replaced by the dealership at some point and they put the cardboard there to prevent rubbing?

Thanks for posting this. Would have loved more (since your truck is so close to mine in config and options), but I'll take what I can get. Got one nugget for sure. 1970 4WD steering gear yellow pull decal should have a "C". The rear spring pull code is tantalizingly close. If you can look in box 49 and tell me what those two letters are, I'd appreciate it.

Re: Mountain Find - 1970 GMC K2500
I agree. Was it common for them to put one under the seat and one on the back? I've never seen a truck with 2 of them.

Re: Mountain Find - 1970 GMC K2500
Pretty cool.
I have seen them with one on the seat and one taped to the tank. But, I have never seen one on the back and the bottom of the seat. |

Re: Mountain Find - 1970 GMC K2500
I found one in jigsaw pieces in the passenger door. Maybe it had fallen off being taped to the window. Fremont truck. I've since lost it.

Re: Mountain Find - 1970 GMC K2500
Not sure to be honest but I seem to recall one member finding three total in one truck.

Re: Mountain Find - 1970 GMC K2500
Is there a service available that can offer the complete history of a vehicle similar to what is done if you own a Ford? Ford owners do not have to rely on a sheet of paper that eventually disintegrates over time.https://www.martiauto.com/martireports.cfm
