60/66 Trucks at the 2023 Vintiques NW nationals

I don't get over here much but thought that you might like seeing the 60/66 trucks that were at the Vintiques North West Nationals in Yakima Washington last weekend.

77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.

Usually I see more 64-66 trucks at shows. Nice to see a couple 60-63s still out and about. Thanks for sharing!

I am also happy when I find these vintages at meetings
Have the 60-63 trucks become that rare?
Certainly here in god old Germany and Europe,
the 64-66s are certainly in the majority here, in very manageable numbers.

They aren't exactly rare, just less popular because of the wrap around windshield and it's dog leg that will get your knee if you are over about 5' 10"
The torsion bar front suspension is the main issue with most folks though.

All 60/66 pickups are gaining popularity in this area. The buy in is usually affordable and as this group well knows they are easy to work on and easy to modify.
