Going just off the body I'd say its a 73-78 with an 81+ front clip.

The bed, cab and doors are faded to match where as that front fender is much brighter indicating a newer replacement. The front fender is definitely an 81+ because of the orientation of the turn signal and the grill with quad headlights. The bed is 73-78 because of the previously noted gas filler. In 78-79 GM moved to fuel doors instead of gas caps on the outside. Although I have a factory 76 with fuel doors. Of course a quick check of the VIN would clarify everything.
