Information max tow/hitch weight 1979 C10 350ci

Here in europe one needs to have the maximum tow/hitch weight on the car 'papers/licence'.

Unfortunately the former owner did not do this when he imported the bike.

Does someone have an owners manual with the information how much weight a 1979 C10 with a 350ci V8 is allowed to tow?
Could you please be so kind to scan it and post over here.

Thank you VERY muc in advance.

My original 1979 owners manual rates the C10 at 8,000lbs. Sorry, I can't scan it...

I know you can get the owners manuals online. here is one http://info.rockauto.com/Bishko/6302.html at www.rockauto.com I cant really link it right to that part because of the way it is set up. but I am sure you can figure it out when you click on the 2nd link.
