Been looking at getting another K-10, the dash has 5 holes above the radio cut out all about 1-1/4"s. No heater or ash tray cut out. Looks factory done. The rest of the dash is normal, gauge cluster ( not installed) and glove box. Wonder if anyone has seen something like this, maybe military? Thanks. Jeff

Sounds like aftermarket gauges to me. Has it got extra gas tanks?
Maybe Oil , Temp, Amps, and for the other two: Saddle Gas Gauges or Volts, Vacuum, Incline? A Clock??...

Cab is so full of stuff it is hard to get in there, I did feel on the inside just now and looks like someone did patch it in and did a nice job. Took a picture and will try to post it.

Not a factory option. The dash was either equipped with an ash tray in the space above the radio or the A/C diffuser, on the factory-equipped A/C trucks. It sounds like the area has been infilled with a panel and new holes drilled, to accomodate the aftermarket gauges. Take a look at it from the back, to be sure.

If not, you have the only one in existence, therefore it must be priceless.

Hi Tony,

Posted this before I spoke to you, turns out the owner did cut out and patch in a panel with holes for gauges. Then tore the truck apart and that was 20 years ago. Came stock with a 283 and 4 speed as you talked about. He has the pink and lots of NOS parts, wants to put a LT1 motor in it and change out the axles and basically ruin the thing.......Needless to say I am trying to buy it, though right now it is a rusting pile of........ Thanks for your help and input on my GMC! Jeff
