Factory Dealer installed options From GMC in '69
I think the thread name says it all.
I found these in the back of my owners manual.      Cool stuff huh? Notice the pull out bumper, some one was just asking about this a few days ago. ------------------ '69 G.M.C. 350/350.

FINALLY got the HORNIAC...a '70 one ton Longhorn with a Pontiac 350/350 and lots of 'personality'. Check out The Longhorn Webite.

Another interesting thing...the arm rest, aux springs, tow hooks, radio, rearview mirror, power steering, wheel covers, ect...were all also factory options. I find it interesting that tehy would offer these things AFTER the sale too.

I was able to buy the side step and a tire lock, both NOS off of Ebay. Paid $16 for the step and $12 for the lock.

I've seen only one pickup with the air horn option. It was a GMC half ton LWB. I don't remember what year the pickup was, it's been several years since I looked at it. It was loaded with about every option available and was black inside and out. I didn't buy it due to extensive rust.

My C30 CST has the pull out rear bumper, and did have the 8 track, the 8 track paperwork was with the truck, but the player was gone. Cool info there. I did not know the rear bumper was offered, I thought it was after market.

My truck was an original `69 GMC 3/4 ton 4x4 with a Dana 60 rear axle with factory installed Detroit Locker. I was told its one of about 1000 made. I was putting a clutch in it last summer in front of my uncles garage and ended up learning a hard lesson in procrastination. Me and my cousin were almost finished and I decided we could wait till the next day. That night there was 70 to 100 mile an hour winds that blew a bunch of trees down and one of them happened to be a 65 foot cotton wood that landed in the middle of my cab. Now I am building a full out custom with it. I'm tearring it to the ground and putting a Dana 60 in front, 6" suspension lift, 3" body lift, I'm custom building massive bumpers, getting a fiberglass 67 hood with the brand new Trans Am Ram Air hood scoop, and painting it bright red (anyone got suggestions on the brightest red paint I can get?) with black gold metalflake flames. I'm doing it all myself. The powerplant I hope is going to be a 348 big block. The body style is a long box stepside.
