Does anyone know a vendor that sells a replacement ID plate for a GMC 2nd series? Thanks.

Check Jim Carter's. And in GMC's language there is no 2nd series, so be sure you know what you have when you call him. 2nd Series could be taken to mean '47 or '55.

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble...

Jim Carter's on-line catalog has GMC ID plates through 1955, which probably means through the Z series (the end of the New Design series of GMC trucks).

Thanks for your help. I guess I should have said 1955 2nd series- Task Force.

1955 2nd series Chevrolet = Task Force (1955-2nd through 1959)

late 1955 GMC (Y series) = Blue Chip (late 1955 through 1959, I think)

Sorry BMC but us GMC guys can be a little picky about the lables. It may seem a nuisance but often if you don't get it right you won't get the right parts either...

I know Jim Carter has the Z series GMC plates because I bought one from him recently at a swap meet. I have no idea about the Y series plates.
