Exclamation What year's the truck in this video?

http://sb1.thefifthnetwork.com/VCMS/...annelId=ID0EFF

This girl was kidnapped at the Target around here. They have a website up that says it is a "mid-70's Chevrolet". Well, I know it isn't "mid-70's" because it looks like it has stacked square headlights, so it has to be at least an '81, no? And it looks like the centerbar isn't painted, so that would make it older than '84, wouldn't it? The video is hard to see, but I'll bet one of you guys can nail it. What say you?

Looks like '81-'83 to me. I sure hope she's ok, that's only an hour from my house.

Ah, I should have known you guys had it covered.

Although I'll guarantee you it's not a '67 - '68 truck, so maybe we'll get a more correct response in this section.

Re: What year's the truck in this video? You may save a life!

Man that sucks. truck can also be a 86 mine had the over under headlight like that and its an 86. THe grill is blacked out so i think that would make it a gmc, unless someonepainted there grill black like id some time back. Heres a picture of mine so you get the idea.



But i ended up removing it just having my stock silver one on there i seem to like it better.

Re: What year's the truck in this video? You may save a life!

This is just generalizing...

Assuming it is stock and a Chevy...
81-82 are unique since they have the turns in the bumper and the grille strip is silver/argent like the rest of the grille.
83-87 will have body colored grille strip.

If it is a GMC, they were all silver/argent.

I called and told them they were off on their year, and they said they already got that tip. But I tried to help, anyway.

That just makes me sick. I hope they find the sob that did this.

Re: What year's the truck in this video? You may save a life!

Apparently authorities found the truck and have arrested the man seen on the surveillance tape. It is expected that he'll be charged with premeditated first degree murder and aggravated kidnapping by the end of the day.

They did find the SOB. However he was not alone. I want the driver of truck too. Someone else was riding in it.

Re: What year's the truck in this video? You may save a life!

I live in KC a little north of Grandview and my trucks a dark blue 75. I was wondering if maybe I might get profiled.
I'm glad they found him. Sad sad story, I'm a strong believer in the eye for an eye approach.
