I'll have to grab some later, it's very 80s with the woodgrain and all.

Looks like a cool little radio.
I'm not to familiar with that model cb but I think it's from maybe sometime around 1976. However the wood grain does go well with the early 80's theme.

For those that are interested, All cb radios with only 23 channels were manufactured before 1977.
After 1977 all full channel radios had 40 channels.
There was a few cb's that were made at the very end of 1976 that had 40 channels but not very many.

Like I said, I'm really into this stuff. LOL

Yeah after you posted about it I did some research and this looks to be a 1976 model or so. I ended up finding an owners manual on ebay so that will be here next week lol. I'm pretty sure it works, some of the wiring is just a little shoddy now.

Cool truck! I like the rear air bumper. I’ve heard of those, but not sure I’ve ever seen one. Nice score on the same color parts truck as well!

Re: 1982 K10 6.2 Diesel build

Got a couple goodies on Ebay. Weather went to **** last weekend so I didn't go get the other 82, so i'll be grabbing that this Saturday instead.



And a wiring diagram for the CB radio.

Thanks! I think it's a really cool piece, luckily it's not actually rotted out or beat up. Some sandblasting and powdercoat will whip it right into shape.
