That is pretty neat . It looks like a Monte Carlo ornament.

The hood ornament has a serial number inside and it starts with JC. So I am thinking something from JC whitney catalog back in the day.

I think you are correct Dave, 70-72 style

this truck is a 4x4. my truck is not personally. Is there anything that is ridiculously hard to find (ie. worth some bucks and there for my time). I will check my core support and evaluate. Upper and lower rad supports are on my list for tomorrow. What does the sport rear bumper look like? As far as being stock, I am not for against it. I just like my ride to look different but like it could have been an extra from the factory. Not to crazy but not just bone stock. Ya know???

So the truck is a 72 C20 4x4? If so, someone needs to save it from the crusher. The rolling chassis is worth $1,500.00 + if complete with drive lines and spicer hubs. Look for the front hubs and they will have a blue center. These are very hard to find in good condition.

The sport bumper will be chrome and look similar to the front bumper and have a cut out in the middle for the license plate bracket.

Yes it had blue centers on the front hubs. This truck seems like a honey whole for someone. What do I need to look for on the hubs to make sure they are good. Hubs are 12 bucks at this yard. It does not have the sport bumper. I remember the way it looked. The drive line is there. I think the SPID said it had a 350 and I know it had a manual tranny. Hell all 4 wheels were still there too. To be honest with you I don't know how this truck made it to a yard at all. Such a crime.

Wait just a sec. I just realized the truck had Custom C20 deluxe on the fender and it was 4 wheel drive. Should it say k20?????????????
