Hello All. I don't know if anyone has posted this before or not. I did a keyword search through the forum and nothing came up. However, in my constant wandering around the internet I tripped across the website below and found a mountain of information about my truck (and all the other years as well). Definitely something I needed to keep moving forward. Hope it is valuable to the rest of the forum members.

you likely searched the wrong terms or place wink folks have been regularly referred there, and it's mentioned in the tech tips, also some years are available at Keiths old chevy manuals site from back before GM put them online for free

The Vehicle Information Kits on the GM Heritage site are a little difficult to page through. The same information is available on Keith Hardy's "OLD ONLINE CHEVY MANUALS" site with a big improvement. The table of contents is hyperlinked to the section in the kit.

< CLICK 1 > Old Online Chevy Manuals
< CLICK 2 > Specification Information (Resto-Packs) Packages - Pre 1960
< CLICK 3 > FYI - 1954 Information Kit on Old Chevy Manuals site.

The quality is a little better on the GM site, but it is much easier to find on Keith Hardy's site.

FYI - GM sent printed kits to owners/restorers for free a few years ago. I got mine around 1999.

Thanks for introducing more 'Bolters to the Restoration Kit information.
