1976 sports how rare was this one?

https://i.pinimg.com/736x/c0/4c/9b/c...b703dc2f51.jpg

I had one of these black stepside with those graphics.
Wondering where to find info on production run etc.

Hope to replace it or do a clone I do paint and graphics so that part is easy.

Thanks for the help!

Re: 1976 sports how rare was this one?

Cool truck. If you build it, I'll watch. Do a build thread here, and guys can give you lots of good help if you need it. Honestly, rare isn't usually a term used for any of these trucks since they built so many and rare is used often with cars with low production numbers. However, if you mean unusual, or uncommon, I certainly don't see trucks like that often and didn't even when they were new. Search for sport trucks and you will find some factory brochures, etc. Not sure if there are production numbers available.

I have owned a 79 sport for 26 years. I have only seen three (3) others during that time. Rare, maybe not. But not common.

This is definitely on the desirable end of the spectrum to own in my opinion.

Re: 1976 sports how rare was this one?

I'd love to have a K10 Sport. My uncle had a black K10 stepper with the 77 version of sport pkg stripes (like 1st pic below) when it was new, and it's stuck in my head for the past 44 years... Here are a few motivational pics (of the 77-80 variety)!

I bought a 77" Sport new and my dad bought a 76' Sport new that I still have. One repaint, stripe were painted a little different. Wish I still had my 77'

Keep them coming... I got mine from the original owner back around 1981... sold it due to excessive gas consumption and that guy rolled it and total lose. I will get out the old photos. I'd like to do a clone of it

Not really big on graphics, but those are some nice looking trucks.
