I know they were used in 1969 & 1970 on the P/U, not sure about the blazers or burbans.

Not 71/72 because they went where the engine badges go on those.

So in the picture I posted, the emblem has just been added after the fact below the Engine badge?

Used in 68,69 and 70 under the front marker light.
In your last pic it was added.

Yes,like Eric said,it was added. Figure in '67 there was no side marker to mount the badge under. In 67/68 there were no optional engine designates,then in 69/70 engine badges came out and were located under the fender badge. In 71/72 the Custom Deluxe and Cheyenne Supers came out,which required the "Deluxe" and "Super" emblems to go where the engine badge was on 69/70s. The engine badge went under the marker light,which bumped the "All Wheel Drive" badge

I wish they kept using them through 72, I think they add a nice touch. Oh well, one more reason the 1970 4x4's are the best in my eyes.

Did GMC's get these as well?

**special-K** · 01-01-2012, 01:02 PM

GMCs didn't get these and they are the best. How do you figure that?

Just kidding. GMCs didn't bet either these or engine badges. They are the mysterious ones...heh heh

Good info! That reminds me I've got another gmc example to add to the

trim thread

So are the holes the same spacing as the engine badges?

**special-K** · 01-01-2012, 06:56 PM

That's a good question. I don't know for sure...never checked. The same question could be asked about the engine badge holes on 69/70s and Deluxe/Super holes on 71/72s. It seems to me I recall the holes under the fender emblem are different for engine badges and Deluxe/Super emblems...never checked those either.

The 4 wheel drive emblem and the CID emblem were the same spacing. The deluxe and super emblems were by themselves for spacing.
