VIN card for 1980 GM vehicles (pickup shown on page 2): http://service.gm.com/dealerworld/vi.../vincard80.pdf

The VIN Card helped!

C - Chevy
C - Conventional Cab* 106"
G - 5.0L 2BBL C,T C+
4 - 1/2 Ton
4 - Cab & Pick-Up Box
A - 1980

So it must be the "305ci V8 2bbl 145hp". You were right Keith. Thank you!
