Welcome Colin.
Here’s how to decode your vin and I don't think factory steel bed floors came until much later. Have fun with it and there's lots more info at that site I linked:
www.oldgmctrucks.comCurt, thanks for the information, but the problem I have been having is finding the correct model numbers for Canadian built GMC trucks. It's easy to find decode information, but finding a model number sheet for the Canadian trucks is very difficult.
Hi Colin
My name is Valentine I live in Red Deer. I own a45 GMC CC-102.Have done original.It came from Boise Idaho. If you look on the right side of frame, at the front you should see the vin #. As for the box bed it is metal,, tailgate has old GMC on it on circle around was on earlier years.There is also a guy that has a 41 GMC outside Sylvan Lake, that I sold my gas tank to. If you have any other questions? Now that I know you are rodding it do oyou want to part with your rims as I'm in need of two or three. If so do you know what the bead width is 4" or 5".
Valentine, thanks for the information. As your truck is from Idaho I'm guessing it's an American made truck? Mine says General Motors of Canada right on the serial number plate on the passenger's side of the cowl. I have the VIN, I just can't find decode information for Canadian GMC's.
The reason I asked about the metal bed floor and tailgate being different is that I know in those years there were sometimes a lot of differences between the Canadian and American made trucks and cars of the same model. Specifically, do you know of anyone with a Canadian made GMC in these years and if theirs had a metal or wood bed floor and what the tailgate looks like?
As I mentioned in my first post the suspension was stripped from the truck many years ago, so I don't have the wheels. In fact other than the frame, there aren't many parts I won't be using.
