Re: How many '60 and '61 "Ugly Snout" trucks survive?

I have to admit...I did not care for the early GMC hoods but after looking at these pictures...WOW...they really look good. The black one up above really looks clean!!! They all look fantastic.

Here is my 61 hood in the early stages of restoration...4 year restoration.

Below is one at one of the first shows we ever went to a couple weeks back. Welded up all the seams on the hood and the front clip to clean up the lines. Even welded and molded the corner cowls before relieving a bit of the body line down the sides.

Its amazing...people still love these old trucks. They always stop and want to share a story about how they wish they had kept there old trucks of this generation.

To me...its these 60-61 hoods that really set em apart from larger number of 64-66 trucks...thanks for a trip down memory lane and allowing me to share...
