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

I've been into this series of trucks for a LONG time and I have always loved the 60-61 Chevrolet hoods...

Unless you're in a favorable climate there's a lot to be said for finding a nice one that doesn't require financing.

I have a 61 C10 hood "rough" at the braces and a "perfect" 60 lcf hood that I hope to marry up soon. Not mine pictured but inspiring none the less...

I'll be running that on my 62 C10 if I don't mess it up trying... otherwise I have a decent 2-6 Chevy hood as a back-up so to speak.

The 60-61 GMC's are not my style but they do make a statement!

What is the difference in the park lamp bezels? I have a set, but they are different from yours. Mine are more plain... rather get some like yours.

Those pictured are chrome 1960 Chevrolet bezels.

The green truck has painted 61 bezels.

I prefer the 60 style painted or either set when chromed.

Ok, well then yes. I have the 61 bezels and I agree I prefer the 60 style chromed. I will be ordering some real soon. Thanks for that information.
