For helping keep this great

on the Internet for over 30 years! and not clogged down with Ads! Again, thanks! | | | | Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 23 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Jul 2006 Posts: 23 | 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.

Has it got extra gas tanks? Maybe Oil , Temp, Amps, and for the other two: Saddle Gas Gauges or Volts, Vacuum, Incline?

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.

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 | | |
