1968 chevy small back window
 

Does any body know if a 1968 chevy shortwide with a small back window is rare, i see alot of big back window 68's.

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

dont know about rare...but probably less desirable though

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

No such thing.

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

i thought 68s only came with big back windows??

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

I am thinking it is a 67' cab with small back window, i bought truck for parts and was told it was a 68'

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

Does it have marker lights?

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

Yes marker lights on sides of front fenders

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

It's a 68 or later.

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

67's came with small back windows with an option for large back window. 68's came with large back windows. However after 43 years, no telling what patched up trucks are out there. I've seen some very "creative" trucks out there supposely being sold by the grandson, uncle, cousin, brother, neighbor of the original owner with big block 4x4, corvette option, super spot option, factory built in 4 track players, ralley wheels, mis-matched doors, fenders, tailgates, fenders, hoods, grills, etc. Huck

Keep the small back window!!! But never heard of one on a 68...

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

take this with a grain of salt but i watched a small back window truck sell on ebay that was "listed" as a 68. ever since i have wondered if it was an option in 68. enquiring minds want to know guys.

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

Look up the VIN.

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

Well i have the 68 for sale on ebay listed as 1968. I was just wondering to change listing to a 67 instead of 68.

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

was not an option in 68 but it is possible to have been an early build date with carry over from 67. have seen that

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

one i watched sell was last year.

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

This one ends on march 13th, this saturday

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

GM commonly used "left over" parts from prior year's models ... pretty sure someone has shown documented proof here that their early production date '68 came with a small window.

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

The 67 Price & Facts Book states and I quote Window, Full View Rear
Opt No. A10 cost $43.05 No such option available in 68 listed

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

I agree with the first part. I have still yet to see an original 68 with a small window in the 10-30 series. Some say they exist, but i have never seen one.

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

They still do that now to. I had a 1995 with 1994 parts:lol: In fact the trans casing was a used reconditioned case straight from the factory with all new guts. They ran out of casings and were buying them back from yards

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

X2, In 1968 the big back and side marker lights were a safety issue.:chevy:

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

I have yet to see a 1968 1/2 ton to one ton with a small back window. GM supposedly never made them. All I have heard was chatter about people saying there uncle rar rar had one back in the day and it HAD to be the real thing.
Did this parts truck have a VIN plate on it? What did the VIN plate say on it?

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

could be a cab from a big truck, I think they were small window all the way through 72

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

to make a big cab work you'd have to cut the front lower 1/4 of the cab off and swap it. From the door front lower portion clear up to the dash.

Re: 1968 chevy small back window
 

I had heard one time that they used about 500 cabs with small windows in early 68. It was also very common back in those days for dealers to get what ever they wanted built.

Every car company builds a few cars/trucks (1968) for the next model year in the present year (1967). They still do it today. Sometimes they start running these new models 3-4 months before model change. They are called pilots and have about 20 engineers walking along with them to see that they are getting put together right.
