Need help identifying truck

[ErichK]

Hey guys,
Can anyone help me identify the year and model of this truck?

I attached some pictures.

Let me know if you need any more.

That looks like the same color as my 86 silverado.. With the four headlights I am thinking it might be a sierra grande... Same as silverado really, probably 86 or 87.. Im sure someone will be able to correct/verify that for sure!!

Yeah im going with 86 gmc

Isn't that a gas cap sticking out on the passenger side? If so then the bed is 73-77 or 78.

Could be an 85-87 GMC judging by the grill providing that it hasn't been changed at some point. Looks like the front fenders have either been changed to 89-91 or the emblem holes have been filled.

Looks like a mix and match of parts by the looks of it. The bed is off of a 1978 or earlier truck. You can tell by the round gas cap. 79 and later had a fuel access door. ...Joe

A couple of other things that would help narrow down the actual year would be the axles and transfer case. If it has a 10 bolt rear, 10 bolt corporate front, and an aluminum 208 transfer case, it's likely to be an 81 and up. 12 bolt rear, Dana 44 front, and either a 205 or 203 cast iron transfer case would indicate 77 or earlier. It could possibly be an earlier truck that has had a cab swap done. The drivetrain would give you a better idea of the actual year. ...Joe

As indicated above, the real year would be the VIN #. The VIN number on the frame will give the true year of the chassis, no matter what year cab has been swapped on. ...Joe

Can anyone tell me exactly where to find the VIN # on the frame?

Going just off the body I'd say its a 73-78 with an 81+ front clip.

The bed, cab and doors are faded to match where as that front fender is much brighter indicating a newer replacement. The front fender is definitely an 81+ because of the orientation of the turn signal and the grill with quad headlights. The bed is 73-78 because of the previously noted gas filler. In 78-79 GM moved to fuel doors instead of gas caps on the outside. Although I have a factory 76 with fuel doors. Of course a quick check of the VIN would clarify everything.

The VIN is on the dash, driverside. On the frame for older models, driverside near the #3 and #5 cylinders.

Can you read at least the first few digits?

I have a '75 K10 and the vin is on the pass side frame rail next to the fuel pump.

I found the VIN number and looked it up. Turns out it's a 1986 K10 Pickup truck. Cheers to everyone who helped me out.
