Let's see some Blazer SPIDS. I couldn't find a thread on Blazer SPIDs like that on the truck forum. Here's one from a recent member post with 16.5" wheels and the DF2 Camper mirrors and every option you'd want:

These DF2 Camper Mirrors would look real "different" on a Blazer - does anyone have pics of a K5 so equipped?

Pete, Why didn't you tell me about this? As to the DF2 mirrors here is a clip from the 72 brochure. Thought I posted one before for you, maybe not.

Tim SPID thread in your honor and thanks for that great Blazer pic! I'd MUCH rather have the DF2s on my K5 than the tiny "sport" mirrors. Wonder how many K5s had below eyeline mirrors...

Here's a pic of the black Blazer - a member truck. I found his thread last night: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...ad.php?t=31605

Re: Blazer SPID thread?
 
Huh - all the SPIDs so far come from K5s built at the Flint or St. Louis plants...I'm partial to the Flint plant :)

Thanks! It's not too hard to find rust free sheet metal here but in general the trucks were worked as the pics of my K20 as found show. It's unusual to find a nice survivor but a nice 70 K20 survivor popped up for sale not too long ago that was straight and clean.

Your post got me to change the title of this post to include Jimmy's as well. Let's see some Jimmy SPIDs! EDIT- Well at least I tried to change the title - maybe a moderator can change it to include "Jimmy"?

Here is my SPID, also what is the heavy duty aux rear seat.

Re: Blazer SPID thread?
 
I think the Heavy Duty Aux Seat is actually the passenger seat. A passenger seat was optional as was the rear seat. My K5 has the same two options for seatings as yours.

The one standard seat is a driver's HD/utility seat. The AN3 adds a passenger HD/utility seat without a console. The upgrade A50 bucket seat option replaced the driver's seat with an upgrade bucket seat and added a matching passanger seat with center console.
The AS3 rear seat option was a three passenger bench seat that was matched to either front seat option. The standard cover or the upgrade CST cover.

Folks it looks like we have a CST Highlander here!! What color plaid would be installed on this bronze K5?? If the chrome hub caps were an option, what came standard on CST vs. base model K5's? Full wheel covers were optional I assume.

SS Tim 08-17-2013 07:58 PM

Re: Blazer SPID thread?
 
Pete,
Too easy, code 671 is a CST/Highlander w/grey inserts. Per the color chart that was the only "recommended" plaid combination on a 522 bronze Blazer.

The standard CST hub caps were the painted version.
The P03 caps were optional on all Blazers with compatible wheels.
The P01 wheelcovers were available on 4x4 or 4x2 versions.
On 4x2 Blazers you could also order PA1 wheelcover.

Not sure which caps or covers were standard with the "package" Highlander Blazers (YG6-8), as the literature only mentions the pickup covers/caps directly. However it is possible 4x2 package Blazers were PA1 wheelcovers and 4x4 Blazers were P03 as part of the savings package.

Thanks Tim - grey was my guess and that's very helpful info for us re: hub caps. Pete

Good move, I'd like to reproduce my original SPID as well. Guessing you bought a blank reproduction & completed the details yourself? I think the most difficult part of the process would be finding a working type writer. Maybe a print shop?

See member Chipflyer's website for repro SPIDs: http://www.outintheshop.com/ There's an example posted on my K20 build thread linked to me signature below.

Anyone notice that in Tim's posted GM add above it indicates that "water-proofed" clusters and ignition bezels came on K5's (listed under STANDARD interior)? Really?

Not a SPID but here (http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=168345) is a list of RPOs from a K5 that include an auxiliary battery. I can understand an aux battery on a truck with a camper - but a K5? Not many 1/2 ton trucks seem to be so equipped.

71 Jimmy very nicely optioned to include aux battery.......@Tim: ever seen a truck w an aux battery AND overflow tank on the SPID - seems incompatible. Let's see more Jimmy's....

Root Beer or Dog Food, tough choice but I will have to go with the dog food. :-)

Now is this a hypothetical question or on a SPID I missed?
The only period vehicles I can recall seeing RPO V10 on were fleet/medium duty trucks.

But I do know of a TP2 truck with an added overflow tank. It was installed on the right as expected and the washer bottle had been relocated back to the left side.
