Nice photo of the authentic "crackerbox", it has the period correct 5 hole wheels.1968 was the last year for this model, in 1969 the Astro was introduced.These were considered COE, cab over engine. The correct name for the other trucks in this thread is "tilt cab". These trucks came out in 1960 and were used to about 1981, till replaced with Japanese Isuzus.The other obscure model was the LCF, Low Cab Forward which ended in 1966. The LCF was replaced with the shorter 92" cabs introduced in 1966 and the 1967 short hood C 50-60's. Unfortunately today, we are in a de-evolutionary state of heavy Chevy and GMC trucks, this weight range have been abandoned.
