I have these on my C30 tow truck. Looks like a teepee or tent?

A symbol for a PTO equipped vehicle?

Jeep has the Cherokee, Did Chevy have an Apache option package?

Camper special?

First time I have seen that emblem, thoses are my best guesses.

In most years it was listed as the Z81 Camper Special , so look for that RPO code for your year to get the list of mods. It was only available on 3/4 ton and higher trucks, and usually included the highest GVW for that year. Dual batteries were a separate option, but often ordered along with Z81.

In today’s ridiculous PC Cancel Culture environment, That Teepee trim would be considered offensive And culture appropriation.

I miss the Land O Lakes girl….

Chevy did have an Apache model for several years. That teepee is indeed a camper special. I am still laughing at some of the comments posted on this thread. Very creative, suggestive and sarcastic. Man, I love this country!!!

Oh yeah? Well if someone said something to me about it in that tone I would tell them "yup this is the Indian Hunter Truck" ... for chasing them down and running them over.

There was a random car show coming out of the gym the other day. I saw this Fleetside bed Apache. It was my favorite truck there.
