When I built my 69 Chevy K10, (33 years ago) It had enough lift on it that I had a hard time reaching the dipstick to check the oil without getting my clothes dirty from leaning on the truck.

I pulled a dipstick and tube from a mid-70's Chevy Van that came all the way to the front of the hood, just behind the radiator support. This way I could pop the hood, raise it about 12", reach in and check the oil without getting dirty. The dipstick was about 3-1/2 ft long. The handle was just to the rear of the left corner of the radiator.

I have Polaroid pics in a box from lots of years ago....... Don't know where those are......
