Tuff4rd,

Welcome! Yes indeed, that is a sweet bump! Looks great. There were hood emblems available...the one I have seen is taller than the one on your hood and it had a red and blue disc on the front facing forward.

Welcome and Hello from another texas. That is a great looking ride.

I also have a 71 XLT, but it was an almost option free truck (pb was all besides the base XLT stuff).

:wel: :fr: Sweet bumpside is right!!!
Not sure about the hood ornament but those rear steps on the bumper are awesome. Not too many of those around anymore, you should hang on to them.

Hey tuff4rd,

A big webfoot welcome to ya from the great Pacific Northwest...
Where Bumps rule and chebbies drool...
You got yerself a VERY sweet bump...
It would look a lot better if it wuz a '68 tho...
'68's just rock a little bit more than any other year !!!
:D

Re: the hood ornament... I don't believe it is stock at all.
It used to be pretty popular to put them on pickups...
They would get them from LTD's and Fairlanes and put them on just to be a liitle different...
Mack bulldogs and sitting jackasses were also very popular then...

Welcome from the heart of green country in okla. Thats one super sweet XLT you have there. As far as i know i have never seen a factory hood ornament for the bumps. I do know the dent sides had several differnt ones avilable.
