CA plate looks like it says 2X74127 but came up with no results but when I changed around the last digit, I got results for pickups that were all 1987 models, so it suggests that this possibly was a real plate that was originally registered in 1987.

The badge appears to read "7000," indicating a C-7000. Comments?

I (want to) read 7000 too, but it really blurry. This said, the 7000 was the "heaviest" available model from 1979 onwards, so it's a possibility.

@ rjluna: I'm not sure that a hand-made medium-duty pickup provides enough reliability to be used as a source, as the name/emblem could be as much tweaked as the bed :)
But this GMC 7000 shown on flickr:

has this badge (looking indeed a lot like the one of the truck of this page):

But did only the 7000 models had the V-8 Something badge?

I'm not sure about your last question, but that first number sure looks like a 7. The second one certainly doesn't look like a 5 (eliminating 7500), so that's why I think it's a C-7000.

As far as I know, the 7500 trucks were "medium-tonnage" HM-Series models until 1978 (plus some early Kodiaks and Topkicks from 1990 onwards), and this model number never appeared on the hood side of any 1973-88 medium-duty C-Series model.
As said above, the 7000 was the heaviest model of this truck line from 1979 onwards (it was the 6500 from 1973 to 1978).

So if you read 7xxx, it can't be anything else than 7000, and it makes this truck a 1979-88 model.

At this point, you're more well-informed about these trucks than I am ;) 1979-1988 C-7000 it is then.

Oops. I notice 3½ years later that this badge is a 1980+ model → 1980-88 C-7000
