It disappeared between '63-'67. It reappeared between '68-72 as HD 3500 or HD C 30. In '73, disappeared again for good. GM gave up on this weight class, today it is dominated by Ford and Dodge. Hard to beat the curves of the 60's.

Yes, somewhere I have a '62 GMC Stake/Flatbed brochure and those models are listed. The 1991-2002 3500HD cab and chassis models were similar, and also used 5 front/10 stud rear hubs but with 19.5" tubeless wheels.
