76-ish K5 door trim and emblem questions

Hey all,

I'm gonna be listing some K5 parts on ebay, and I don't know what year K5 the parts came off of. Of course I forgot to write down the VIN , so I was hoping a few pics might help. Racedvl seems to think it was a 76-79, and I tend to agree. I just want to be sure before I list the stuff. So...on to the pics, first will be the door trim and woodgrain:

Group of emblems (the fender and rear quarter emblems are paired up, their mates just aren't pictured.)

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I can also pull the part numbers off the back if that would help.

Thanks for anything,

TJ

I don't know if it will help, but that stuff looks identical to the stuff in my 77 Blazer.

I would bet it is 77-80 stuff since doors, and door panels, were different from 73-76 as opposed to 77-80.

I was thinking of you when I was pulling this stuff off Jeff (ask Racedvl). Did you ever get that electrical plug cover for your top? This one had one.

Thanks for the info as well

yes i would say 77-80 or so, my 76 has a slight wrap over on the wood stuff door panel, wraping on the top of the door towards the window but im sure width is the same.

It has a red interior. The back seat was immaculate, the front seats were different. The drivers seat was a high back bucket in tan, but the passenger seat was an original, in red, with a perfectly working forward tilt mechanism. All in all, it looks like it was a really nice K5 when new. No spectacular options, but it had a boatload of options that aren't all that uncommon.

What kind of shape is the side panel below the window in? You know, the one that runs from behind the front drivers seat all the way to the back by the gate.

Can you get a pic of it? If it is in decent shape I would be interested in buying it from you.

Thanks.

Well, I didn't really give the headliner a close look, or the rear seatbelts for that matter. Maybe if we talk really nice to Racedvl, he can head back up there Sunday?? He only lives a few miles away from the place, I live 3 hours away....LOL
