Re: Hood orniments and head light bezels
My '90 GMC Jimmy had a hood ornament.
LMC Truck might be able to help you out on finding a specific one...

Re: Hood orniments and head light bezels
The reason the 1980 with the square headlights is so find to hard is because they only came with the Silverado package that year. All other models retained the round headlight and bezel from '79.

Re: Hood orniments and head light bezels
The Bonanza is the trim level. In 1980 Silverado was the top of the line, Cheyenne, then Bonanza. Did I miss one? When did the Scottsdale begin?

Re: Hood orniments and head light bezels
Scottsdale began in '75. It was still there, along with Custom Deluxe. I think the Bonanza and Cheyenne were marketing packages. Scottsdale got you a color coordinated rubber mat, instead of the black one in the Customer Deluxe. I think the upholstery was upgraded a bit, and there was different trim on the door panels among other things.

Re: Hood orniments and head light bezels
ithe bonanza is a mraketing tool used to get the most selecte4d options on a truck in the off months ie the winter to get sales up i thought it was applied to the chyenne level not the silvarodo

Re: Hood orniments and head light bezels
Whats the significance of the the hood ornament? I guess what I should say is did it only come on certain trim levels/years or was it simply an option?
