Nostalgic Pics Thread
 

We have a Factory Photos thread.
We have classic sales brochures.

There's a thread like this in the 67-72 trucks area of this forum,
so I was thinking we need a thread of pics of our trucks that give you that Nostalgic feeling.

So,
Post pictures that give you that Nostalgic feeling.

I'll start with these from the 4x4's Gone Wild thread:

The hound dog in the back is priceless!

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

I've posted these before, but since the subject came up again..... :)

The first pic is my '62 in about 1975... it belonged to my cousins.

The second and third pics are in 1982... it was my brother's truck at the time. He had just painted it his senior year in his autobody class at the VoTech in Henderson, Nevada... :ito:

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

Soon after I inherited the truck... some 'build pics'... way back in 2000 or so... :chevy:

From another thread:

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

these are a nostalgic trip back for me, this was the first 65 I dragged in, a cold fall morning in 2007.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

Interesting. I don't think I've ever seen a "cabover" shell before. :lol:

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

This photo was taken in 1970 by my dad of his then new Buick GS. Excuse the quality it was a Polarioid picture. What’s more important is he captured an image of the 1962 long bed fleetside purchased new by one of our neighbors. It had the deluxe chrome package and a bright aluminum grille. By the time this photo was taken he’d obviously added a camper shell:

The parents had just spent over $2,000 repairing their 54 Oldsmobile sedan, and it still came home on a tow hook. It went bye-bye, and the dad got the brand new truck shown. The mom came home with a brand new 1962 Impala 2 door hardtop. His truck was the first one I’d ever seen purchased by someone I knew, and hers was the first new car I’d ever seen with bucket seats and a floor shift. I never owned a camera back then so no pics of her car. We thought they were the coolest parents ever. In 1966 they bought their 17 year old son a black inside and out 1964 Impala SS 327/4 speed. It remains the coolest “new” car I've ever seen.

This photo was taken in the early 80’s. It was a former show truck owned by the local bachelor barber shop owner. The grille, bumpers, cowl vent, steps, and everything under the hood received fresh chrome. It had the 73 bed and was the most beautifully finished truck I’d ever seen at that time. He always came to work early and parked in that exact spot (in front of his store) for years.

My first 1965 Chevy Truck. I lowered her by cutting coils up front and using coil compressors in the rear. Photo taken in Galveston, Texas - West Beach in 1977. I was 17yo. Been a 65' and RUSH fan ever since!

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

you actually looked a wee bit like Gary back then (he became Geddy as that is how his grandmother pronounced Gary)

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

I'm not sure.
Maybe Zack mentions it in his thread:

LOL...probably started looking like Gary after listening to them so much. My nose isn't quite as big as his nor is my wallet!

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

LOSTMY65.. Ok is there a pic showing the snowmobile behind the truck.. I can see the ski poking out in the pic..

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

You have a good eye.
The grandparents had a cabin and the family would go snowmobiling a lot in the winter.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

That's a very cool picture, we've taken many pictures of our cars over the years, at that very same spot.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
 

Thanks! I love it up there. My mom has a timeshare in Gatlinburg, so we try to go as much as possible. Gonna be heading up in late November this year, which will be the first time I've been during that part of the year. Hoping to take my '66 up there someday, once it's back on the road.

If I can get the time to dig through the picture albums back home, I'm pretty sure there's quite a few more I could contribute to this thread. When we go back over the Christmas holiday, I'll see if I can find and scan some more.

I don't think this is an old photo, but it has a nostalgic feel.
