you should have a pic of the emblem, if you have the emblem! - you're talking to the wrong "noone's"! - I can tell you that because 59's could have had a V8 optionally, there would have been an emblem for the option like these GMCs on rob's site - pretty simple

you'd hafta find some trucks of each year w/ the emblems to see if it changed at all - I doubt you'll find production breakdowns like engine type - for those years all I've ever seen for GMC is total truck production for the year including all series [sizes/weights], tho it's a safe bet that prolly less than a quarter had V8's especially the 1/2 and 3/4Ts
