The rain gutter discussion lead me to find a spreadsheet I had been working on. I started with off the top of my head and then looked for SOMETHING to back-up each change I could remember....

I hadn't looked at it lately so it is about as "dome" as I was going to get it.... might as well post it.

Mike,
I had put together a spreadsheet years ago on early changes and have not updated it in a few years. It was basically changes by TZE# and while not complete it is probably the most comprehensive listing there is. My original intent was to try and define the numerous running changes during 1973/74 production where most of these are not defined in any GMC document that I know of. It was compiled by me recording TZEs and changes I observed at a number of GMC rallies from the mid 80's thru the early 2000's. In an effort to "not reinvent the wheel", I can pass it on to you if interested.

Sure, I could combine both into one... most of the references I found refer'ed to your pictures anyway. I can do the on the rare times I have to be up late to be ready for night work the next day.

About the file:

I put the file on "google" drive. I made it public so "anyone" could open an edit it. (I suspect you have to have a google account, like gmail, to be "anyone".)

Right click and you can open it in the google world. You can also save it in different formats. (I haven't tried this set-up before... )
