seen badges up to 15,000 gvw.

1980 only from all i have found you could get a k30 std cab long bed with 12,000 gvw . . . . . i had one that was rusted to death . but saved the badges .

most of the big gvw was 2wd trucks tho .

i did part out a 2wd 1/2 ton suburban once with a all factory 454/th400 combo and 10,000 gvw tags on it .

A few years back my father had a 48 Plymouth Coupe, cleaning it out and getting ready to sell I found a 1935 buffalo nickel hidden in a floor crack.

I honestly think my father was more upset about missing out on that buffalo nickel than he was about selling the car...
