Chevy Sport Ads-2 for price of one!

Thought I was seeing double but in my file I had an ad about Chevy Sport
trucks when motornut found another one. Looks to me someone (maybe
Chevy) just switched trucks in the ad. Please compare and comment.
Thanks in advance--Larry

Had both trucks and took two pics. Moved one, loaded the bikes and took the pic. Swapped bikes and trucks and took another. Only had to pay for 30min of their time that day.

Re: Chevy Sport Ads-2 for price of one!

The only problem is the orange truck is a 76 and the red is a 79.

Looks like some old school photo manipulation going on in both images.

Re: Chevy Sport Ads-2 for price of one!

Looks like some 70s photochoping to me from the same photo shoot but different segments of it. All the shadows are the same

Re: Chevy Sport Ads-2 for price of one!

The 76 is a pre production with aftermarket wheels

note the manufactuer plate

As far as I know the production trucks did not have a white roof

I actually have both of these but my 79 is a fleetside

My 76 is original paint

Re: Chevy Sport Ads-2 for price of one!

I know you can't go by pictures (Different Light-Angles-Focus&etc) but does it seem the grille in the top picture of the 1979 Sport is somewhat different from the nice 79 Sport of 80SPORT's? Perhaps there was an optional grille like
(V22) option had in 1977? Was that an option in 1979? Thanks-Larry
