My dads 68 has been changed a ton.

Finally posting mine up.

This is a claimed 40k original mile truck I saw for sale.
Don’t believe I’ve seen a 5.14 rear diff listed on a fairly light duty (3/4 ton) pickup before. Could be they quickly tired of driving 40 on the hiway and parked it with so few miles 🤓

Chevys4life · 07-05-2018, 03:07 PM

That's a nice looking truck there fourspeedwagon!!!

Yeah - That sucker’s clean. I like it/wish it were mine..

fourspeedwagon · 07-16-2018, 10:15 PM

Ok SPID experts- this is a truck I’m looking at getting.
I’m working off texted pictures so far, haven’t seen it in person yet but was trying to sort out exactly how it would’ve been.
—-I think with the 396, the auto trans would be a th400. What would the standard rear gear be with nothing specifically listed.
—-it’s listed as white/olive green. Is that a white top with green body. White body with green interior or ?
—-Anything else special you see on here that I should take note of?
Thanks Greg

stormtown · 07-17-2018, 06:16 AM

trans is definitely TH400 spid code is M49

Off my truck

This SPID looks different. Is this a Canadian SPID?

On a truck I'm looking at.

Thanks!

Lots of goodies, but if it was destined for Canada, it has additional equipment which I'm not seeing.

OK.
Sure is a strange looking one. Not sure what to make of it.

Spruce green instead of dark olive?
No wheel base
misaligned letters
different font
etc.

Probably an inferior redo of a SPID. There are better repros out there. See site here and search internet.

skrenly, This SPID is factory and correct for a 1972 Chevrolet built at Oshawa for the U.S. market.

Agree, its made in Oshawa, but is missing the Z39 Mandatory Canadian Equipment rpo.

Thanks for the INFO.

It does not appear to be a re-pop, so I figured it must be Canadian.

Which is how you can tell that it was built for the U.S. market.
Z49 BTW

Doug's68SS · 07-26-2018, 12:49 PM

My 68 396 400 TH had 3:73 gears in it.

Here is my "Son's" (mine for now!)

He just left for the Air Force.

But it's mine to play with while he is gone!

Nice! Blue, one year older and .030 smaller bore. Other than that, just like mine. Same, but different, like a guy I know says.

**Patch** · 08-25-2018, 10:59 PM

Here is the SPID from the parts donor that I just picked up the disc brake frontend off of.....WOW!!!!

**Steeveedee** · 08-25-2018, 11:39 PM

White with a black interior. Done. I can just see the salesman's face. "Nope, no power steering, no automatic transmission, no tinted windows, no AC, etc,...) I just want a white truck with a black interior".

Could well have been a year-end case where stuff just got put in however the materials were left over.

Then again, it's painful to watch AM/FM/CB radios and Firebird honeycomb alloy wheels getting the sledgehammer before being thrown in the dumpsters for recycling at the end of a model year.
