Anyone know where I can get a GM parts book for a 51 Chevy pickup.

Dave's link is to a resource that is much easier to use than:
- buying/using a used Master Parts Book (eBay), or
- buying/using a reproduction Master Parts Book (available from most reproduction parts vendors - look in the Links section of this website), or
- buying/using a copy of a Master Parts Book on a CD-ROM (available from most reproduction parts vendors - look in the Links section of this website).

Dave's link is to an indexed on-line version of a Master Parts Book. Having it on-line, with an index with links to pages, make this on-line resource a much easier and faster to use resource compared to owning a non-indexed version.

Thank you, again, Kieth Hardy for creating and maintaining your Chevrolet documentation website.

I am looking for the correct bolt sizes used in various places of the truck. The Factory Assembly Manual lists the part number of the bolts. Does the Master Parts Catalog give the sizes of these bolts?

I haven't found many of the nut/bolt/washer numbers in the Assembly Manual that match the numbers in the MPC. However, the illustrations and sizes in the MPC are good reference to guesstimate the correct size of the item in the Assembly Manual.
