Ed,

I couldn't find a full original pic of a Chevy C60, but did find some reference pics that the badge on the truck in your pic falls into the 1973-79 range.

I did find a pic (from an original brochure) of a 1976 GMC LCF which used the virtually identical body style (see attached below).

Based on this info, a good guess would put this as a 1976 (or right about then) model C60.

Hope that's helpful?

Dan

Ed,

There are a bunch of C60 when using the Search link above, there are a lot of entries on Stovebolt that cover C60, C-60 and C 60, and LCF.

Now if it's too early, I'm guessing you won't find that.

Wonder if that era would be covered in VCCA chat?
