1988 GMC 3+3 04-11-2009 07:16 PM

want your guys's opinion
 
OK, so I have an 88 GMC 3+3 dually. The truck is missing all the emblems? The title says GMC so I'm going with that. I am having a lot of problems finding emblems, fender,cab ect. I know the originals are the plastic type mounted lower on the fender and cab. I really love the 70's metal emblems they have so much class. I'm thinking of putting the 70's emblems on the truck, of course I won't find a Sierra Classic 35 metal fender emblem, but I can find High Sierra 35 emblems. What do you guys think? Would an 80's pickup look bad with 70's emblems? Anyone who knows their trucks would know right away the emblems were not orignal to the truck, would I look like a dork with the wrong emblems?

do whatever you think is cool, ya know? like jesse says, "FTW", but seriously, you shouldnt have any trouble finding the emblems you want from www.classicparts.com or www.lmc.com

how many people do you "really" know that would "know" the difference anyways? around here, maybe one or two :lol:

IMHO you would only look like a dork if you put emblems from a yugo or a saab on it other than that its all good

Yeah if they look good on the truck people won't hassle you too much. Of course there are always those people that are all about originality, but it's not their truck!!
