C10-C90 Bill,

The sale month for my truck is not included on the pink slip, and the model year is listed as 00, which does not help.

It sounds like the truck is a 1996 model purchased in 1965. Knowing that it is not a 1965 model should help a lot in my search for parts. Thank you for figuring this out.

I will begin a search for big truck wrecking yards looking for 1996 GMC trucks. If I can't find replacements for the current latches, I will see about using the Jeep type hold downs.

My truck will be used in the Sierra foothills, where we are usually going either uphill or downhill. In either case, putting 11,000 pounds on this old truck is probably a bad idea.

Thanks again for your help.
