1968 C-Series, although that cowl insignia looks like it's from one of the newer models of that period. |

I agree with C-Series (rear-wheel drive) This 1967-1972 generation was available with a rear limited-slip differential (LSD). The 1973-1987 rounded-line generation introduced the "Gov-Lock" automatic locking differential (ALD). The Gov-Lock was nicknamed the "Gov-Bomb"  |

C-20 (Neptune, my dad had a '67 CST 327 w/ G80 Posi bought new). Later I had a '68 6 cyl. Love that series Chevy truck. |

I agree, the badge clearly reads "20 Custom Deluxe." It's equipped with a Fleetside bed. |

G80 was (I think GM still uses that code) the Regular Production Option (RPO) code for all of GM’s non-open differentials. For that reason it causes some confusion. According to Eaton (the company who makes the automatic locking differentials), they didn’t start supplying GM with the ALD until the rounded-line generation. PickupTrucks.com seems to also confirm this. See the two paragraphs above the photo of the red stepside. Link to "www.pickuptrucks.com" Post 1973, GM referred to the new G80 differentials as the "Gov-Lock" automatic locking differential. They lockup 100 percent like a conventional locker; locking both axle shafts together, so they must not be confused with a limited-slip differential which can only partially lockup. Here’s the option/price sheet for my ’87 Chevrolet V-10 Fleetside, which lists that it has the optional locking rear differential (a $252.00 extra). G80 is stamped in the glove box along with all the other RPO codes. ![[Image: 38501130010_large.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/0ib/38501130010_large.jpg) |
