Re: Blazer SPID thread?

my new to me Jimmy. The guy I bought it from said it was a 1971, and he titled it as such, but decoding the VIN, I think it's a 1972...

Re: Blazer SPID thread?

Here are some photos of a 1972 Cheyenne Super "Sportbird" shortbox I am restoring. Interesting to note they only applied the decals to the hood, tailgate and the glovebox.

Re: Blazer SPID thread?

Nice options. Gold vinyl trim with Hugger Orange paint. That's different. Not seen that combination before.

Re: Blazer SPID thread?

Thats what I thought too. When I first saw the picture of the interior I thought it was dirty parchment but then saw the spid......hope it looks ok.

Re: Blazer SPID thread?

Ttt...interesting pattern emerging. Looks like St Louis may have built all 1969 and 1970 MY K5s with Flint coming online late in the 1971 MY then ramped up for 72. I wonder if the 1971 MY Flint examples had provisions for both style tops as was the case for 1972.

Re: Blazer SPID thread?

Here's a SPID from a tow hook equipped 72 CST I completely bumbled upon in the back of an auto parts place while on a recent trip to Wisconsin...

Re: Blazer SPID thread?

Probably a stupid question (I am best at these!); what is the significance of the tow hook equipped trucks?

Not a stupid question. No significance other than this option is seldomly encountered and oddly wasn't listed as available on pickups with a chrome bumper though examples of the combo are documented.

Thank you. I had to ask since my Blazer has the hooks (and it does have a chrome front bumper) and I just assumed they all came that way.

I still have so much to learn...!

Re: Blazer SPID thread?

1970 Blazer invoice listing shoulder belts!! Sadly no longer present and the SPID pic is too tiny to decipher. This K5 is presently listed for sale on eBay.

Re: Blazer SPID thread?

Just now noticed the skid plates on my CST K5 are listed on my spid. I never noticed it before I started digging around because I found a skid plate in the back of a 71 Cst K5 I just got, it's not like the factory t case plates. anybody ever seen one like this? it's a MBI

It is different than all the others that came from the factory. it's just sitting now and I won't be using it. it may be an aftermarket not sure.
