Welcome, recommend post your VIN and SPID (sheet pasted in the glovebox).
69-72 grilles are relatively interchangeable, so could be any of those years.

If your VIN starts with "CC" (and is of the 67-72 era), it will be a 72 and the 6th character will be a 2 (CCE142...)

If your VIN starts with a single "C" (and is of the 67-72 era), it will be a 67-71, with the 5th character indicating the second digit of the two digit year (CE141 if your C10 is a 71, CE140 if your C10 is a 70).

(the "E" will be an "S" if your truck originally had a 6 cylinder engine)
