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"?

Options.

I just purchased this bare bones Blazer and here's the SPID. Not much there but I do have a question about one of the items.
1AS310 - is the rear seat option
but what is
1AN310 - Heavy Duty Auxiliary 'WHAT' Battery?
Thanks for any help.

RPO AN3 is the passenger seat, which was an option on base model K5s

OK, thanks. I didn't know they came without the passenger seat.

[PGG]

Here is mine seems to open some questions for me.
I dont see the CST listed like on some others.
Is mine pretending to be a CST? PG

[asolde]

I believe what makes it a custom is the Cheyenne equipment package. You have a nice custom truck!

Correct, the RPO Z84 Cheyenne Equipment line on the SPID is the CST package. No worries there.

Here's one I'm just picking up today.

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.

[Yukon Jack]

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.

[RANDAL]

wow thats cool to know thanks SS Tim and thanks Yukon Jack for the help.

[DeadheadNM]

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]

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

72 cst - I'm now of the mind that only Flint and St. Louis built K5's

[DeadheadNM]

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.
