Default Re: emblems
Warning: The round 1960-61 emblems mounted on the front fenders which were consistent from 1960-66. The V shaped 1962-66 emblems mounted to each side of the hood which was different for the 1960-61 model years versus the 1962-66 model years. See these two links 6066 GMC Emblem Identification and 6066 GMC Truck Hoods ID.

Jon --

If your truck came with no emblems and has a V6 in it, there are two possibilities:

1. It originally had an inline six in which case your VIN would start with an "I"

or

2. A previous owner installed a Chevy hood, a common but incorrect swap.

Ed,
I should have said that the holes are there, just somebody removed/stole the V style emblems. I am looking to replace them.

If the question is for me ? I took me two days total. Media blasted them and primed them. Taped off all the non white areas and painted three coats of white. Then did each of the other colors. Baked it in the oven for a bit then did the three coats of clear over it all. They aren't totally perfect but I think they look pretty good.
