W31/broadcast card.

I have seen posted here many broadcast cards with the W30 called out on them, usually on the second row box #3. I have seen this on 1970 and newer W30's & (W31's, 1970 only) and I think on some '68-'69 W30's. My question, does anyone here have a broadcast card for 1968, 1969 that calls out the W31 option on their card?

"Blue Oval Ranch" had a '69 W31 on E-bay a while back that had documentation that included a Broadcast Card. It did not have the W31 on it.

It could be said that is was entirely possible that the '68-'69s didn't whereas the '70s did. There were "body modifications" required for the '70 that were not needed for the '68-'69s: holes for the W30 emblems. I'm just not certain of this as the front fenders are obviously part of the front clip, and the front clip was not part of Fisher Body. So are there other body mods in '70 for the W31? How about the body side/wheelwell moldings.

Thanks Kurt, mine does not and I have seen the 1970 W30 & W31 with it, and was curious. I do have my original window sticker, so I'm good on documentation.
