Tailgate isn't original, but a very nice truck indeed.

I don't see anything out of place w/ the tailgate..is it from a different year? And is the grille missing a chunk in the top center, or that a slot to reach for the hood release?

Sharp truck.

Sharp truck.

Yes, the aluminum insert is a later style on the tailgate - it should be a narrow strip and inset for this year.

Not positive on the grille, but yes, I think a chunk is missing. My '79 didn't have a gap like that as I recall.

Nice!

I was still farming back in those days and I had a '76 Chevy K10 Scottsdale 4X4. Mine had the 350 4V with 4-speed stick (with the granny gear) and lockout hubs. It was a good running truck but was constantly in the shop--electrical system was crap and the clutch plate & throwout bearing gave me no end of grief. I'd wanted a similar pickup with a 292 six but couldn't find one, so settled on the V8 one.

Buddy of mine had almost the same truck, but with the 400 V8 & full-time 4WD...it had a lot more scat than mine did.

I've had a '70s GMC pickup truck addiction since last October... here's a beautiful '77 K30 SRW Crew Cab that is simply amazing (love the two-tone color of this one too). It's not far from me, maybe I'll email the seller to see if I can take some pictures (b/c God knows I can't afford his asking price!!):
