Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?

Just bought this heap with my brother this afternoon. We were going after a 1955 Apache but the older fella that told us about it was off by 10 years. Price was very cheap so we figured what the hell. There is a large nice brown rat that does not want to leave. Guess he is a Texas rat now we bought it in OKL and brought him home.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?

IMO, uncommon sites, a 20 emblem that still has blue and red paint and 16" 2 piece rims. The positive offset of original 8 lug wheels floats the hubcap outwards. 1/2 tons do not have this look unless 17.5" wheels are used.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?

Sorry not a 60-66 vintage but long and low trucks can still be work trucks. My 2 owner '69 still works every week.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?

Check this one out Sodly! This one got the love. IMO, the original owner had to be an airline pilot. Very meticulous recreation vehicle owner! This Jimmy has all the bells and whistles, from the factory and from the owner https://www.proxibid.com/1966-GMC-Pi...ation/67983999

IMO, the add on's don't impress me, the factory add on's do. Turbo 400 auto and Sports Trim options ( bucket seats etc.) This is the top of the food chain for '60-'66 GMC's! Would have loved to see a photo of it before the repaint, wheel change and trinkets.

You took the words right outta my mouth. Would love to see the "before" pic. The interior is great, tho!

It probably looked very similar to this. Appears to have been light blue by the inside of bed shots. This is why we hold "time capsules" in such high regard, fighting the temptation to alter is hard to do. Jon (60-66) found a '66 GMC 1/2 ton in time capsule condition, the challenge is on to find a '66 GMC 3/4 ton top of the line time capsule as in photos!

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?

Here is one for you Sodly! 3/4 ton's rarely get restored to this calibur, this one is a treat to see. Not to mention, low production numbers in the early 60's.https://oldchevytrucks.com/blog/2022...custom-pickup/ Side note, this photo shows the dramatic styling changes of the 60's. Carryover styling of the late 50's disappeared to the fresher styling of the mid 60's. Its amazing what a restyled hood, windshield and grill did to the styling of this series trucks.

Re: Where's the 3/4 ton love?

Many similarities between this '62 C 20 and your '61 Apache 20. They both have the V 37 chrome front bumper and hubcap option plus the molding option in addition to the Custom option.
