1976 GMC Jimmy — TKL186F517642

Evidence status

A preserved photograph in Craigslist post 7984213632 clearly shows VIN TKL186F517642 on a Service Parts Identification (SPID) label. This is a direct reading from one seller gallery. The label's authenticity and its independent match to the vehicle have not been established.

Factory documents

The photographed SPID reads model TK10516, wheelbase 106.5 and order P51192. Selected printed entries identify a 350-cu-in V8 (1LS9), four-speed manual transmission (1M20), locking differential (1G80), bucket seats (1A51), white hard top (1Z58) and High Sierra equipment (1Z84; descriptor truncated on the label). The paint rows read 141L / 41 SPRING GREEN-SOLI and 1ZY1 / SOLID PAINT. These are document readings, not verification of installed components or current finish. No manufacture date is established.

Physical vehicle evidence

The gallery depicts a green Jimmy with a white removable top, visible lower-body corrosion, a brown bucket-seat/console interior and manual-shift controls. Photographs do not establish original paint, complete corrosion extent or present roadworthiness.

Owner or seller statements

The seller describes 56,500 miles believed actual, a numbers-matching 350, SM465 transmission, NP203 transfer case with a part-time kit, WARN hubs and 3.07 axle tags. These remain seller statements; true mileage is unknown (TMU). The seller's Spring Green metallic wording is separate from the label transcription. Those words alone do not establish a paint-finish conflict.

Later research

Twenty-four source-hosted gallery renditions and a larger SPID rendition were preserved on October 17, 2026. This records a dated documentary source, not a present sale or custody check. It adds no special-edition authentication or production-count conclusion.

Open questions

An independent readable VIN plate or frame stamp, title, certification label, build sheet and original sales paperwork have not been recovered for comparison. Label authenticity, chassis association, manufacture date, original/current paint and components, lifetime mileage and ownership continuity remain unresolved.
