Option info from GM you must read
So I call GM of Canada today and they sent me some information on finding out the options on my '79 Stepside Sport that was built in Canada. They said I can fill out the form and send it in and they will send me all the build data on my truck. Now here is the good news, the way I understand is, they have this information on all trucks from '77 and newer, even the ones built in the states. Here is the website
http://www.vintagevehicleservices.com/options.html Here is his information George Zapora General Motors of Canada Vintage Vehicle Services CA1-160-001 1908 Colonel Sam Drive Oshawa, ON Canada L1H 8P7 Phone: 905-440-7636 Fax: 905-440-7644 Jeff, I asked if this information could be posted on a website and he welcomed the idea. I called the number you had listed on your 73-87.com site and it has been changed to the one above. I hope you guys find this information helpful. I am going to send my information out this week. He did say the cost for US trucks is around $110. so call him before you send your form in. Chris

Re: Option info from GM you must read
I have had to use there service when the stupid smog police here pulled me over and they literally had no clue what emissions equipment came on the truck('80 CK20HD) from factory.
For $25CDN that shut them up and the letter from GM stays in the glove box for the next idiot that pulls me  Great Service for those that need numbers and original equipment details for there GMC/Chevy vehicle....and yes it will cost you $$$ for the info. to be sent to you.
