Emblem Question

[tim71]

I'm curious on what determined what fender emblems went on a truck? I have a 71 GMC K1500. My emblems are "1500 V-EIGHT". My truck has all the options that would make a Chevy a Custom Deluxe. The GMC emblem choices are: Grand Sierra, Sierra, Super Custom, Custom and the 1500 V-EIGHT. Seems like the appropriate emblem for my truck would have been "Custom". I do have the "Custom" emblems in script on the doors. My resto/rebuild will have my truck approx 90% stock, I want the correct emblems, but I guess vanity is making me want to put "Custom" emblems on the fenders.
