The Fender emblems are not Repopped, only the Dash emblem Is. I searched for a while and finally found a used set in great shape.
Good luck… keep checking ebay

Way less GMC stuff is produced compared to Chevy.
Imagine there is less demand.

The emblem he is looking for isn't repopped yet but in the past 18 months much has become available, tailgate emblems, horn buttons, cab moldings, grill emblems, all the stuff I used to hoard when it came up for sale.

Not of a 1980s high sierra. Either its a high sierra or a sierra classic, my dads 75gmc, But hes lost his badges long ago. I have 70s Sierra Grande but that probably isnt going to cut the cheese

I saw an aftermarket "SQUAREBODY" badge on a website but it looks like HIgh Sierra is a hard one to stumble on. I saw a ebay listing that ended on the 12th and it was one badge only for 25$ so keep an ear to the ground on ebay and fb locally.
In the meantime, a sierra classic 1500 would look pretty sharp and the only person who will know it will be you. If you switch the dash one too you can match. As soon as you find a High Sierra badge, you can sell the set to somebody for good money I bet.

I know about those Sierra grande ones, i still want them, haha.

I rendered you saying you had some emblems sitting around, thought it was worth a shoutout.

If you have to have them, and you have the budget, there are a few places that can reproduce them out of Billet.

Another place to keep your eye on is Squarebody Swapmeet on Instagram. Not saying he has one right now, I haven’t looked, but he has a very proliferative rotation of parts that he posts. Might be worth a look.
