C/60 Trim Question

[Livrat]

From the dozen or so C40-60's I have parted out, the 67's had 3 tear drop bolt on cab light without the raised roof, 68 had 5 of the same, the 71-72's had the fireman hat lenses with the raised roof. I have seen one with factory AC and AM-FM
As far as I know they did come with the "custom appearance group" option.. which was bright grill work and stainless window moulding and chrome wing vents,
First picture is a 72 C60 I parted with the custom appearance group option, 366cu, tach/vac
Second is a 67 C50 350 cu,plain jane and third is a 68 C50, 366 cu, plain jane..

I think they could be ordered with many of the same options as the c10-30's an additionally could have air ride seats,
Another observation is in 71-72's with the 366 big block they had a fresh air vent on the drivers side of the hood and with the 427 big block had them on both sides with a "427" emblem.

So,that first one with the Custom appearance option had the 67/68 style "Custom" door badge? This one is like that. It has the 69/70 style C/60 badge. I wonder if 71/72s had those badges or Custom/60,etc. I must not have been paying as much attention all these years as I thought I had. I'm just curious since 89/70s designate the Custom appearance with 67/68 badges,if 71/72 is non-typical,too. Where's Too Much Stuff?? Eric,I think you had mentioned you had CST/50 or 60s?? Or some other upgrade badges? It would seem a Custom would have a fender badge like that and doesn't. I'm taking pictures today.

Oh,and what do people do with the 366 cranks?

After a second look at my other pictures, Yes first pic is a 72 C60 and it has the 67-68 "custom" door badges. Took a look thorugh a few more pictures I have and here is a C40 (not sure on the year) that looks to have the appearance group but no door badges. all the fender emblems I have ever seen are just the different years of C40, C50, C60, never a "Custom/60" etc.
I have also noticed there are different hood bowties some are flat and some are raised at the top.. (havent figured out if its a year thing or model difference)

The 366 cranks are steel and the same as a 396 and 427 car cranks

[too much stuff]

Tim, the only oddball big truck emblem i have is a C/50- 8-366.
Otherwise they have all been bowtie over 40,50,60 (like the 67-68) or C-40, C-50, or C-60. I have noticed the 67-68 custom upper door emblem on bigger trucks, but didn't pay attention to what years they were on. I know those emblems came in black or chrome if that means anything...
Even on my GMC emblems, after 3500 series they are just V-six, V-eight, or diesel.

There use to be a pair of C/60s around here that had panoramic rear windows, both were 5th wheel trucks owned by a company that moved mobil homes.

If I had the room this 10 wheeler would be in my driveway!

That is one fine truck! It sure would take up some room,though. That's one thing I like about this one,it wouldn't take much space.

Thanks for answering these questions. This one has the Panoramic window option. It's a '69 366/5+2/air brakes. I couldn't read all the SPID. I wish it was spring time cuz I would buy it. I have to store my nuts for the winter now. This trucks is in great mechanical condition with good Michelin rubber. That baby big block purred like a kitten. Just as quiet as it could be. Here are some pictures I took:
