70 C10 swb big block (has a 454 in it, but comes with the removed original big block) $21.5K
Holy COW I'd loved to have seen this gem new.. 70 big block swb, white with GOLD interior. Really like it, but I probably couldn't resist the urge to take it back to completely original.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Didn’t 70 big block spids say 396 ?

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

both - I assume dependent on how far along it was thru the model year -or- perhaps a plant-specific thing? but most 70's I've seen said 400 like the 71-72s. here's one of each for ya

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

I think you will find more 400 SPIDs than 396, at least based on the SPIDs posted here and elsewhere--not sure why.

That's the way mine reads in my '71

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

This seems like a great deal if it is rust free.

Old Blue...What am I missing? this seems like a smokin hot deal. Body looks solid, nice interior. K20...clean under hood.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Mike, I'm pretty sure all big block SPIDs would read as 400 by 71. 70 is the oddball year where the engine crossed over from 396 to 402 and both the 396 and 400 seen on SPIDs.

So here's a thought, I wonder if there is any correlation to what's actually in the truck or if it's just at some point the factory cut over to the new nomenclature. In other words, did a 70 with a 396 get 396 on its SPID and a 70 with a 402 got 400 on its SPID? Or did all the big block trucks at a given plant have 396 listed up until a certain point in time where the plant just started printing 400 instead, regardless of which big block it had. In early 70, could a 396 have been installed and ever labeled a 400 on the SPID...? (or vice versa, a plant change over to the new nomenclature on the SPID while still installing the last few 396s?) Hmm. You'd never really know unless you had an original scenario to dig into. And you might not know even based on a build sheet because the SPID likely matches its nomenclature as 396 or 400; it could have just been a naming convention changeover date at some point. Dunno... Prospective new truck buyers didn't "run the numbers" on the engine block back then, they would just assume the truck had what the SPID said.

Now paging Keith, Paging Keith Seymore? :)

Many of the PICs are from 15 years ago during the restoration process, and obviously not restored to factory SPECs.
16k is right where it needs to be if he actually wants to sell it which it appears he does.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

I texted the seller requesting a picture of the SPID with no luck. He's unwilling to share the SPID/VIN. In person only inspection he says. Good luck with that unless he finds someone local.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

You might suggest he block out all or some of the VIN depicted on the SPID if he's uncomfortable - you're only interested in the RPOs and the first 6 of the VIN really. Some people are like that, and it makes it hard to make a sale happen.

Cool Suburban for those who have a place to park such a beast.

Re: Post Your Craigslist Finds
 

Regarding post 6533 Old Blue K20. I spoke with the owner, I asked him what the first three letters of the vin were? He said it’s a 72 K20 and I’m not giving out the vin number. He then said that he bought the truck in CA or AZ can’t remember, and he bought it without seeing the vin. He wanted to know why I wanted to know the first three letters, saying that’s not going to tell me anything. Saying I’m in Ca and all the scammer on C/L “ come in person and look at it “ then he basically hung up on me. Good luck with that sale, or maybe not.

Since were on the subjects of big blocks. Looks like he dropped his price.
Looks like a good price if someone is looking to restore a big block car or truck.

A decent priced California K20 in Mi with hooks

IMO that doesn’t look like a factory AC setup on that 72 K20 in Saginaw.
