Default Chevrolet or GMC ?

Hello folks
I urgently need your help. I bought a new pickup and would like to know what type it is.
The papers say GMC K10 /CK.
But there is the Chevrolet logo on the front of the radiator grille. It was sold as a Chevrolet K1500 Stepside.
So is it a Chevy or GMC?
What equipment does it have? Is the 4th generation 1989 and bumpers also in body color. (Sierra? Silverado?
thank's

Hello
According to the VIN: it's supposed to be a Chevrolet 'Fleetside', but it's a 'Stepside' ???? Also, the bill says GMC and not Chevrolet. Now I'm very confused. ??
Here is the VIN.1GCDK14K2KZ191092

maybe a PO swapped some parts around. Or maybe it was in a wreck.

However, a report was made for the H license plate. The TÜV would have noticed that?

Since it is a historic vehicle, I suspect that it is already original and has not been converted by fleetside to stepide.

Hi

So it's a Chevy K1500. Now all I need the interior: Cheyenne, Scottsdale or Silverado?

thank's

If the front end is an original, standard factory build, it’s a Silverado - the Scottsdale and Cheyenne models were built with single headlights, and your truck has dual headlights.

That’s not a guarantee of the trim package, as the Scottsdale and Cheyenne could be custom ordered with dual headlights.

Is the RPO sticker still in the glove box?
