Did GMC start chrome eyebrows in '69?

Trying to find out period correct, and if there were any '68's that had them. Im pretty sure all 71-72s did(at least all I have noticed), but wanted to find out exactly when the eyebrows started, and if they are for all trim packages.

Ok, that should pretty much mean that all 69 and later had them.

None in '67s

Only Customs and Super Customs in '68 - This was the narrow trim that.

All in 69 to 72 - When hoods changed,the wider eyebrows became an intregal part of the grille.

Tim, so in 68 some GMC's may have had the narrow eyebrows that the 68 chevy's had? I haven't seen any of those, or at least don't recall.
