Re: Fremont plant trucks
My '68 stepside rolled off the Fremont line in eye-burning 516 Orange. Still got it. Also have a '67 K/10 Suburban [project] with a Z in the VIN. Both have "Fawn" [light silver grey] interiors.
The pickup I bought in Pasadena, Cal in '73, the Sub I got in Mesa, AZ in '95.

Re: Fremont plant trucks
My 70 C10 is a Fremont as well, sold in Winnemucca, NV to my great aunt and lived it's life within 60 miles of there. Now in 6 million pieces in my garage (not sure how that's possible to have that many pieces in something so simple) as I try to reverse 30+ years of ranch-truck life.

Re: Fremont plant trucks
Wow - I was thinking locally not globally when I thought of this last night.
I guess I should have asked for the nor cal trucks, but didnt think the Fremont plant would ship them so far and wide. One question is how did one pop up in the UK? the next is where do we meet |

mine bounced around from Wyoming to Minnesota and ultimately to Kansas. You have to remember, western and southwestern state trucks have less rust than us here in the Midwest Rust Belt!! so we have those babies shipped out here.

Re: Fremont plant trucks
My old longhorn has a Z in the stamp.....been garaged in Illinois since Dec of 1984. "Those west coast trucks are sweet as molasses". The old truck came to me in dec of 84,very well worn ,dinded up, but VERY solid , showing a buck 40.....or was it 240,000 on the clock($550). Well, a 1/4 century later, and untold & forgoten thousands of dollars later, shes still not painted properly......but that old chop top, dropped chev gets all the thumbs up whenever she hits the streets. The resto guys will no doubt say that this old man did wrong......but the dudes with V8 s -10S wouldnt even "mess" with that old truck
 She ran a 425 Caddy for a couple seasons, a hard torkin 461 inch OLDS(that was bad azz) for 3 seasons. she ran a 355 for another 3-4 seasons, then settled in to that Edelebrock rpm topped 383.....next trip may be into the LS motor. You can take the old man out of HOTRODDIN, but you absolutely can NOT the the HOTRODDIN out of the old man. One totally different longhorn....crazyL

Re: Fremont plant trucks
My truck I brought back from Modesto in`01.Alot of the western trucks are all over the place now that hobbyists are into them.Trucks were generally sold in the same region as the plant.I`ve had more Freemont trucks than anything else.In 40 years they`ve moved around alot.But,I really would like to make such an event if at all possible.
