My new find-'74 C-20
Just picked this up this morning. It's a '74 C-20 Long Bed with 62K original miles. Original paint. No rust at all. 454 engine + 4-Speed. Even is still running the original 16.5 Wheels shod with old Firestone "Wide Ovals".
The interior badge says Custom Deluxe but absolutely No badging or trim on the exterior.....is this normal? No SPID on the glove box door either. Whatever-I'm loving it and it's a good stable mate to my '74 Blazer.

Re: My new find-'74 C-20
1974 SPID is likely on the inner fender.

Re: My new find-'74 C-20
It is a 1974 C20. The spid IS on the inner fender. It lists among other things:
1885 "upper custom molding" 1537 "conventional two-to" (I would guess means-2-tone?) ID29 (or1D29?) "below eye-line type" (mirrors?) Upon closer examination, it appears that it may have been repainted (well) a long time ago since it is faded. Maybe the trim was removed? I can see no evidence of it. And you can also see it has what I believe are Senior West Coast tow mirrors. The owner said his uncle was the original owner and bought it and an AirStream trailer on the same day and headed for Alaska.....Maybe the dealer installed the mirrors?
