All of my Chevy's have gold bowties except for my '64 Bel Air, which is blue.

I last remember that the '69 Chev's had blue bowties in the grilles, but that was it in my recollection. I don't remember them on the 70 and 71's, but they came out in gold on the '72's. Does anyone know if there was a specific year that Chevrolet officially changed the color of their icon from blue to gold?

 

My 72 Chevelle had a blue bowtie.

 

I think, 1973 pickups had gold. But 72's had blue..... Not sure if that year goes for all models or not, but trucks I believe are that way.

 

Oh, and it did go blue again on the 1995 Lumina/Monte Carlos, and stayed on the cars until 2005, when they changed back to gold on the Impala. I know the trucks were always gold through that time period though.

(My truck has a gold bowtie, and my Lumina has a blue)

 

My 72 truck has a black one.

Lol i new you would do that, wait till im done with it, your gonna be pissed lol.

 

I know late 90's cavaliers had blue ones and some or all years were hollow inside. And the bright yellow early 2000's cavalier had a red one that was hollow.

 

I think they switched from blue to gold at the end of 1998, possibly 1999.

 

My 98 S-10 had a gold one..

Course I painted it black & did a red pinstripe around it.. Like the SS models had at that time..
