Off the top of my head I'd add GMC Astro (cabover) and P Trucks (like the Grumann bodied bread trucks), the G Van (cargo and Beauville) and school buses. I recall that the G vans were built in Lordstown OH and Scarborough Canada, but I'll have to check and see if they fall within our model years of interest.

The issue with proliferation is that even within LD Pickup, Blazer and Suburban you have 1/2, 3/4 and 1 ton variants, and LD (pickup style) cab chassis, all of these in both 2 and 4 wheel drive versions. This sometimes will drive differences in final assembly location.
