6-cylinder fender emblems - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Does anyone know a source to buy some fender emblems for the 6 cylinder?
I can find 8-350, 400 etc....but a set of 6-250's would really set off my build.

No factory ones for these trucks, but i know camaros and i think novas had 250 emblems. They don't look anything like the truck ones however.

I also been searching for 6 banger emblems for my 2500... all I can find is V-eight 2500 emblems.. not even sure what fender badges were put on low optioned GMC 2500 trucks if any..

Would still have fender badges. Your truck would have gmc 2500 or gmc 2500 V-6

Aahh but here is the thing .... I have an INLINE 6!!!! Would the fender badge just say GMC on top with 2500 on the bottom left and the bottom right blank??? I have seen something like this but for later years.

I couldn't find anything specific so had to make up my own.....

Here is the original 292 fender emblem on my 72 Custom/20 Longhorn. Hoping to soon replace them with 454 v8 emblems!

Cool! Any idea what year GM started installing those badges? I don't recall ever seeing them before.

Chevy trucks never had emblems for the 250 base engine, the optional engines received emblems '69-'72. Looks like some nice machining work circa73

I found this emblem pretty sure it came off of a nova pd 5.00 bucks for it at a flea market
was gonna put them on my fleetline on the fender but only had 1 so I put it on the trunk lid of my 48...

They would look KOOL on a truck fender too.

RThree, When your 292 badges become surplus to your requirments, would you consider letting them go?

circa73 · 08-31-2014, 11:51 AM

I found a machinist who took my sketch and made this. He can make these with whatever cylinder and CID you choose. Im going to have mine made in aluminum.

'68OrangeSunshine I would have no need for them and would put them up for sale or trade. I will be in need of a set of Longhorn badges.
