I am looking for info

Is there any books or web sites out there that tell about options and packages that these trucks were equipped with?


Did these trucks have upper molding without the lower molding?

This is the website to see to learn about that kinda stuff and no you couldnt get an upper moulding without a lower. You can however have lower moulding and no uppers.

My truck only has upper molding I just assumed it came that way.
I checked my sticker on the glove box door and has option B85 Body Side Molding. My truck is a 70 C/10 and from the factory it was orange and white. Someone repainted it solid orange but I can tell the top was white. So would this mean that below the lower molding would have be white to?

Take off your inner door panel and look inside for evidence of the moulding clip holes being filled up, you might see white paint in there too if the bottom was painted white. It is possible that just the top was white.

Hmm, maybe I am wrong, what would that option be called? I have never seen any top moulding only truck that didnt have lower mouldings.

Anybody have any old ads or literature showing this? I just looked through a few dozen old ads and I couldnt find a truck with upper trim that didnt have lower trim.

Well I checked my truck today (bedsides, cab corners, and inside the fenders) and no holes. So I guess mine is a top molding only. Thanks for all of the help!
