1980 chevy grill???
Hey fellas, I just joined the short box club tonight. I now own a 1980 Chevy short box 4x4. My question is, did the 1980 headlights come in both square and round. I have the round set-up like my 77 and 79 trucks. I have seen the 1980 model with both. Are they both correct???
Thanks guys, Patriot. |

Re: 1980 chevy grill???
There were 2 versions of the 80 trucks. There was the early 80 w/ round headlights and the late 80 w/ square headlights. I too got the round headlights.
thanks pat

Re: 1980 chevy grill???
I think the square headlight front end was only for high end models, as I've only seen silverados with the square headlights. Just a thought.

Re: 1980 chevy grill???
From what I've been told, the square lights were only available on the Silverados.

Re: 1980 chevy grill???
I have a crappy old Custom Deluxe. But I'm glad I got the round eyes. I like them better. I can add power windows and so forth to it if I want.

I have 2 other trucks 81 and 82 and I think they are cool but the single square 80 is butt ugly.

Re: 1980 chevy grill???
Not all silverados had power windows and locks. You could order them how ever you wanted back then.

I was going to say that I've seen square lights on Scottsdales before. I personally like the square headlights a lot.

The 81-87 is my second favorite. I think GM should have just went from round to the sloped front end and skip the flat 80 with the one square headlight. Just my .02.
