Thumbs up Centennial...67

Have you seen it?

1967 C-10 with the new emblems? Man it's sure pretty!
Chevy performance has it at the Sema show!

After talking to tech support at Air Lift I have found out that the kit I need is 60811. Per the measurements I gave them. Ride height of truck inside spring and inside diameter of springs.

Re: Centennial...67

I have not seen it person, but it does look really nice.

I can't figure out why they used the 67. I would think the 68 would have went better with 2018 anniversary addition.

Only reason I can figure is it's the first year of the body change to the new era.
I love the front emblem.

Re: Centennial...67

It's probably not a "real" 67 anyway, at least the cab isn't.

Check out the giant key and cigarette lighter holes, 68+ items. They were about half that size for a 67.

It's *probably* a pieced together aftermarket truck made to resemble a 67, but I agree with the sentiment that a gold/white 68 anniversary truck would have been much more appropriate.

Yeah, maybe more appropriate, but doesn't it have something to do with the blue color? I may be dreaming on that one.

Re: Centennial...67

Cool truck, very nice. But they missed by a year. The '68 is 50 this year, the perfect central split between 50th and 100th years. "67s are cool because no side markers but that doesn't matter on a truck modernized for the 100thanniversary. Side markers, especially the very first yea, are more appropriate here

Re: Centennial...67

(Not content to simply plunk a clean survivor or a well-restored example on its stand at SEMA, Chevrolet sourced a rare ’67 C-10 long-bed pickup equipped with the rare large rear-window option and let its in-house team work its magic. After shortening the frame and cargo box, they applied a coat of Centennial Blue paint and then lowered the suspension with modified front control arms, dropped spindles, and custom springs. A front disc-brake conversion with genuine Chevrolet parts replaced the hoary old drums, and a set of 20-inch forged aluminum wheels (8.5 inches wide in front, 10 inches wide in the rear) replaced the original steelies and were wrapped in 255/40 and 295/40 rubber. Several classic and modern hot-rodding touches finish off the exterior: smoothed and tucked bumpers and tailgate, brushed aluminum trim, LED lighting inside and out, custom gauges in the instrument cluster, an updated bench seat—with a Chevrolet logo, natch—and porcelain white interior trim accents.)
Write up on the other thread about the truck on the front page. I like the truck just fine, though chrome bumpers suit me more, but they didn't build it to suit me.

Re: Centennial...67

My truck doesn't have any external badges or emblems, nothing identifies it as a chevy.

Once these new emblems and badges hit market, this may change!

So... when will we be able to order them?

I figure the grill one may be too big but the fender may work just fine!

You can order them now. Not sure about the one on the side though but the front and back are. They are not cheap though!


Why does there have to be so much negativity in a thread like this. Chevy didn't do this to meet your expectations! They did what they did and I for one thank them for recognizing our model of truck. The fact is if you really like our models you wouldn't ever say anything negative about them no matter what they look like.

Re: Centennial...67

I would of used a 50th truck, but I guess they wanted an iconic truck and IMHO the 67 C-10 short bed is it (I would of had a small back window though)

Re: Centennial...67

Obviously a very cool factory-made hot rod. I'm glad they do this. We all have different tastes - and nobody asked me, but I'D have done an absolutely bone stock resto and only added the new emblems.
And I've have chosen a much less often chosen truck year, a 72....

Yeah, those are just for the "new" 2016+ trucks. I haven't seen anything for the 1967/68 yet

Re: Centennial...67

I just order out the front emblem. I don't think I am going to get it tho. Looks like gm is restricting the orders to the anniversary vins only.

Re: Centennial...67

Just checked the answer back on my order from GM and it did indeed cancel. The only way they can be ordered out right now is with the correct vins. with out that all orders will cancel.

Bummer I was kind of hoping to add it to my garage art.

Talking Re: Centennial...67

I wonder how many dealer will have one on display. Take a camera and get the s/n to order them.

GM is supposed to be adding them as an accessory item later this year/early next year.
