Brand new 1969 trucks
This is a load of brand new 1969 GMC's leaving the Fremont assembly plant in California. Both GMC and Chevrolet were built there.

Re: Brand new 1969 trucks
I love old pictures. That hauler looks unique and looks like it has an Oregon plate too. The trailer looks like its only got around 6 inches of ground clearance.
Anyone recognize their truck?

Re: Brand new 1969 trucks
Hey, SacramentoJoe wasn't your truck recently featured in the Sacramento Bee? I thought I'd recognized it.

Re: Brand new 1969 trucks
Back in the day most trucks were shipped w/o bumpers and the dealer put the rear bumper on with the dealership name on it. I don't know if it is done at all today.

Re: Brand new 1969 trucks
Did you see the cars in the parking lot? Looks like a Datsun roadster and Toyota setting there. I grew up in a GM town in the mid west and no one drove imports back then.

Re: Brand new 1969 trucks
Yeah, that was my story, Mark is a good editor. He smoothed out the story pretty nice.
