Re: Painting Emblems

However you end up doing it, I would use a good paint that will not fade. Some of these emblems are very difficult to remove from the truck. It took me forever to remove the fender emblems for a 1980 blazer and I used a cheap paint and need less to say they were faded again in 6 months.

Re: Painting Emblems

i did clear coat them after i painted them. they turn out really shiny and the factory paint was duller i am sure but i didn't want them to fade fast either. 910 is just the model designation. a 910 is Canadian and 1500 is a US model, 920 is a 2500 and so on. i believe in 1969 they were all designated 1500 and 2500's.

I have a '68 710. At least that's what it says on the oil fill tube.
