Junkmandan3, Thank you for the reply, Sorry about making you go searching ( I had posted it in the other thread hoping you would say something about it and never thought to tell you where to look ) and yes it is a "J" model I tend to lump it together with my C-60 because people tend to know what that is and only truck guys know what a j70 is.

I knew the truck I pictured had a butterfly hood ( it is mine just waiting for the snow to clear to work a deal with the yard it is in and go bring it home ) I guess what I am confused about is what exactly ARE the side skirts you and Bill talk about, I look at the truck in post #427 ( that started that conversation) and am unclear what I am looking at ....also the raised hood... is it a taller hood and grille shell or just raised up off the frame ...I guess I am failing to "put it all together" as far as building my own "spotters guide" what year did the raised hoodline come about ? and one other little issue I am having is that on my truck the glove box tag lists the driven front axle so it came that way, but I am unsure if it would have come like it is now... budds ( or motor wheels) up front, Daytons in the back ..... did they mix an match like that ? or has mine been hacked at some point?
