Re: What drew you to the 67-72 Chevy Trucks?
I was about 9 and my dad had a green 69 or 70 SWB stepside. He totalled it one night and it sat in our back pasture upside down. Being a kid in the country I used the cab as my "fort" or anything my imagination could conjure up from a tank to a space ship.
There was just something about it that I loved. My very first truck was a 67 Ford 3/4 ton that had been my grandfathers, it was pea green (turquois?) and had a flat bed. It was ugly as sin but it was my hay hauling truck until I made enough money to by my 71 when I was about 15 (summer of 1984). It was my pride and joy and I worked my butt off to be able to get it.
It's really the only body style of GM trucks that I'm passionate about and I've owned multiples of most every bodystyle since but still love these.
