1.0 out of 5 stars Incomplete information in book, July 5, 2001

By A Customer

Book was very disappointing. For my 2nd Series 55 it did not show either the engine or transmission suffix codes, did not mention the "V" prefix that denotes a factory V8 engine installed, didn't show the 4 speed Hydramatic transmission code, etc. For a reference book, its shorcomings greatly reduce its usefullness

3.0 out of 5 stars 1946-1972, November 4, 2000

By A Customer

The title of this book should include the years it covers, which are 1946-1972. For those years it does contain a lot of information on serial numbers, options, specs, colors, codes, photos and history of pickups, including El Caminos, Blazers, Suburbans, etc. If the book was published in 1993, why couldn't more production years have been included? Probably so the author can write another book later or a revised edition and sell more copies.

2.0 out of 5 stars Lots of info but some inaccuracy, March 4, 2009

By	J. Venters (Reno, NV) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I borrowed this book from my father and looked up my 1970 Chevy K20 engine. The truck came with a 350 and i bought it from the second owner who believed the engine was never changed, the book said according to numbers it was a 307ci engine which made me wonder, so upon checking with several other sources and checking the full casting number I found the book was inaccurate it did have the original factory 360ci engine. Of all of the thousands of numbers in the book, the one I needed was inaccurate, maybe thats the one error in the book, but there could be more, stick with info on the internet for free and check with numerous sites to get a consenses.
