It has, and continues to be, my intention to put together a Task Force guide like we did with the Advance Design trucks. The AD Guide took a lot of time and effort to track down people with original/restored original trucks to take pictures of the details that provide the telltales.
But, to get this effort underway, I would need a Task Force expert to help/guide me on developing a plan for such a guide (identifying the visual cues, etc). It will be a lot of work and consume a lot of time for which you will not get paid ... any volunteers??
NOTE: MANY of the AD guys did not understand the difference between a "spotting guide" and a complete technical list of all differences in the trucks year by year. I had to sift through and discard a LOT of information I know had a lot of hard work behind it. But it was beyond the scope of what we were trying to accomplish. So I would warn you all up front that if we attempt this, do not spend a lot of time geeking out on the technical differences (anything that isn't visually apparent from 20 feet away) because I will not use it.
And for those who might be tempted to ask for a GMC version of the spotting guide ... just go ahead and shoot me now. Get it over with. I beg you.
