My 69 GMC has coils as well. The funny thing is that when I bought it I was so sure that it would be leaf springs (because all of my other GMC's or the era were) that I didn't even notice it was coil sprung on the rear until after I signed the title and was walking back to it to drive it home. I had even done a bunch of research before buying it to lower the rear with the leaf springs.

The other weird thing about when I was looking for another GMC is that all of the ones I looked at in a month period had coils on the rear.
