OK, I have a '70 Longhorn that has a pretty certain SPID, as it hasn't changed in the time it has been in the family, since 1973. So, pretty certain that it is a true "Longhorn". Besides which, how many people have ever "stretched" a short bed truck?
That said, it doesn't have the "Longhorn" scripts on the rear fenders. Upon investigation, after having a new camper shell put on, I noticed that the bed is tweaked about 3/8". Might consider it manufacturing tolerances, but it's pretty obvious that the bed isn't square. I was thinking that maybe the body shop didn't put the scripts back on after the repair and repaint. I've seen where other member have their insignia held on by double-sided tape.
Nuts and bolts time- who on here has a "Longhorn" and has had the insignia removed? Do they have pins with corrugated barrel nuts, where they just get a gentle tap with a rubber hammer on the assembly line? Or did 3M actually make a good enough double sided tape back in the day?
