Does anyone know what the original seats would have been in a 1970 C20 panel? I have what I think are Blazer seats in it now which bolts up on the drivers side, but the passenger size doesnt have any weldments with the nut on it so whoever put them in drilled holes. Did it maybe not have a passenger seat?

Hi Bigblock
It seems by your description that you have the original setup. My panel had the blazer driver bucket, but the passenger seat was never installed. Instead, there was a flatter floor, without a raised area that a passenger seat tracks would have been bolted to. I had some black no slip strips where the back could be accessed from the passenger door. :)

Sweet panel!, I remember seeing it at Macungie a few years back. Love that truck!. Original paint?, whats the story behind it?

Re: pls post pixs of 67-72 Panels
 

I bought this truck from the president of the AACA a few years ago.My father had a plumbing business in Reading for 50 years till he passed away.I found some old photos of his panel he drove in 1970.Had this truck lettered up to look like his.Truck has just enough patina that it could pass for a well kept old plumbing truck.Thanks for the compliment..i will be at Macungie this year weather permitting.....stop and say hello..Rob.

Truck had been repainted once in the 80's.It belonged to a golf course and was used for groundskeeping...that's what kept the mileage down.

Re: pls post pixs of 67-72 Panels
 

Good story, great idea for your panel. My old man got me and my brothers into these trucks, he bought his 68 swb stepside new. It was a month old in this pic. I

Yeah, he always took care of his vehicles. I actually still have that old moving blanket in my basement.

My '69 C10 panel has the body off and sand blasted. The chassis is powder coated and the LS376/475hp with 4L70E is bolted in. I'll post pics as soon as I can.
