guys, please bear with me as I try to figure out how to reply via email to the forum. I cant log into the forum directly, I emailed batman for resolution but have not received a reply from him.

@biggreen
I think you are right that 11-73 would be a '74 model

@ bdub
great website you have! has been instrumental in finding great info on the GMCs. thanks

@ Otterwan
yes, the plastic V.I.N. plate was red flag to me then add in the fact that the number had a nine instead of one and another digit indicated a 1976 according to the popular info out there on the subject..

I want to verify it is not something fishy going on with it so I joined the forum a week ago but have issues logging in. now I found a way to post to the forum via email but not sure how to send a reply so that it ends up in the proper thread and not starts a new one. still hoping batman can respond to my email so that I can use the forum directly.


@ emorystora

that is encouraging! hopefully someone else can confirm? not that I dont believe you but I want to be as certain as possible before I make a deal on it.



some other notes:

the glove box is not the very early style, it is like most others, just wish the sticker was still there.

the door jamb switch is mounted at the top pf the jamb.

it has the exposed screw heads on the hoods where they upgraded to a larger hinges but doesnt show evidence of the early single latch in fiberglass surrounding the opening.

the numbers on the frame also do not make sense and mostly look like chicken scratch but they dont look so much as if they have been altered.

the heater vents are early style:

thanks for chiming in on this guys! sorry if this post does not go in the thread correctly. (how can I reply via email in the same thread instead of it starting another thread?

and I gotta say, I was only interested in this for dry storage and because its so close to me but after seeing how well liked they are (still) and how much info is out there on them I think I want to make a project out of it and get it running!

just gotta be sure its on the level with proper VINs first.

I'll post more photos and info later as I get more info.

thanks
