Actually both may be correct. The one that had "GM" on the door was definately a truck only player. The one with the bowtie was used in trucks and cars. Jerry Brown at the truck shop personally witnessed this back in 72. He bought a new 72 and ordered the 8 track with it. A buddy of his liked his truck so much when it came in, that he also ordered a new 72 (with the 8 track). the 8 tracks were dealer installed options and not listed on the glovebox. One truck came with the "GM" and one came with a "bowtie". Maybe the dealers used the car players when they didn't have a truck only unit on the shelf. It was GM, who knows what or why they did some of those things they did. My .02
