What NOS GM parts do you have stashed away for 73-91 K5 builds?

[wazzabie]

Here are some of the NOS GM parts I have stored from the past 20+ years.

Passenger/ driver doors, K5 tailgate, K5 tailgate cover, hood hinges, AC Delco air filters, AC Delco fuel filters, GM rocker panels, GM fenders, rubber shifter boot, rear K5 Floor, drivers kick panel, NP205 tcase shifter indicator switch, 78 k5 tailgate emblem, NOS K5 Blazer front and rear seat belts, door seals, window felts, tailgate hardware, door hinges (all NOS GM and many still in the box). I recall buying GM rockers for $110 from the dealer. In 2000 you could still get the rear K5 floor from the dealer.

I don’t really have anything, just 2 Spicer hub knobs in GM bags.

I have thousands of good parts, nothing NOS.

I just install em all. Ain’t worth a damn in a box to me.
Dash bezel and cluster lens. Tach is a cool one. 205 shift lever, vent window stuff, door handle buttons, pedal pads, hand throttle knob, grille marker lenses, diesel badges, fuel caps, and stickers, and probably more that I forgot.

My k5 build has been 20+ years in the making.

78 was the last year with out the hood lip. I've passed on several NOS hoods over the years because they are 79+ hoods.

Years ago there was a government surplus auction that had a dozen GM NOS doors and some 80+ style GM hood still in the boxes.

Oh yeah, a nos steering wheel changed the whole way the truck felt. Definitely a good investment.

Agreed on the installment over hoarding but that being said I still have a few NOS GM parts that evaded being installed over the years.
78~84 NP205 short 32-spline input gear

Countless gaskets/seals, blocker rings , radial bearings , needle bearings, bushings, etc for all things 205 & 465 related

Two sets of D60 Spicer locking hubs and about a half a dozen knobs and a few small internal K/10 & 20 Spicer knobs

All kinds of manual clutch linkage parts, bushings, rods, TOB forks cast iron versions for 72 and down cast iron bell housings

Harmonic balancer for late 70’s 292, marine camshaft, grommets , etc.

Seven blade fans for our squares

Probably more but there’s so much more used GM parts it makes it hard to tell at this point…

Well now I gotta dig em out of my Fred Sanford style of keeping things packed a way….
So few folks left that dig good ole Spicer hubs !

John - remind me about this ( unless I get inspired before hand ) in a few weeks when I stop working shut-downs this month.

Well, for some reason I got the itch this afternoon to go out in the humidity and search the garage over for old parts - I did find some cool parts but there are more boxes to find that will have to wait until the air is not so damn thick.

Had to clean off the Cozmolene (sp?) on the Spicer chrome but most other parts are still greasy or coated - the Spicer dials are dusty and there are a few used sets mixed in there too.
I did find a few cans of R12 in one of those boxes - does that count as NOS ?
There kind of hard to see in the sealed plastic bags but on the Mac Tools catalog there are three sets of D60/70 main carrier cap stud kits - not OEM but fairly cool parts upgrade.
Also you can see that there are some of the axle splined hub couplers that are 35-spline instead of 30-spline like the rest.
On one of the pics you can see the order date was back in 2001 with my name on the sticker. It was a good thing that I had buddies at a Chevy dealer getting me parts at cost plus 10% because I got a whole bunch of parts all through the nineties and early two-thousand’s.
As for the yellow Spicer knobs I think I got those from Dana/Spicer and not GM when they were purging all the old stuff.
The rest is just stuff that was n those boxes - it was too damn hot to keep on digging out stored boxes so one day more to come…

Oh yeah

 

[nvrenuf]

Dang homey, you’ve been hiding a bunch of stuff!
You know, most of those parts will fit that K30 very nicely.

What is this “K30” that you speak of ???
Could this be a top secret code such as “Z71” that will give you extra horsepower by adding stickers….
