Sold for $22K at the auction. No cargo light, so CST? Nice looking truck, at least in the pictures.

Is it a 69 with 72 doors, or a 72 with 69 grill?

Since the inside Rear View Mirror is bolted to the top windshield frame, not glued to the windshield, I'm gonna guess that it's an earlier cab with later doors.
Only '72s had the glued-on RVM.

No doubt it's a very nice truck with 72 style door panels, and regulators
Not to add more questions to the year model, but that appears to be a 70 model grill.

I do not think there 72 model doors, in the first set of pic's no screw hole, an only 72 thang

Spartan · 01-23-2015, 03:55 PM

Its not a factory grill for sure, but could be a 69-70 gm part...or a recent repop.

Nice truck tho. Not what I'd pay with the mismatched stuff, chrome (not for me), and cut doors. Still nice ride and lucky guy who gets to enjoy it.

BugzC10 · 01-23-2015, 04:23 PM

I think it looked better with the Mecum wheels and tires or at least lower it a little with the new wheels

Aruba1 · 01-23-2015, 05:29 PM

Hhahaha, you guys are schooling me about these trucks.

Cargo lights came out mid-year in 69
