Big block is a lot harder to work out but possible. Trim options and colors often leave hints. But to say what your truck had exactly at this point is impossible from what I know.
If it were me I'd just go ahead and build it as a 69-70 Custom/20 and enjoy it. Bring the paint back to the cabs original base color and work out from there. The Custom door emblems are something I would pull off as they flag it as an earlier truck, but they indicate it was a Custom and not a CST if they are original to the cab.
I still hope to do the 68 body restore.. Anyone know my best bet for used parts as far as the hood fenders and grill goes?
