Totally off-topic here - what years did the Beaumont run?

And let it be known, at the time of this posting, the poll was Chevy 36, GMC 21 - not the massacre you all were expecting huh?

Well, I voted Chevy's because I have one. As I stated in another poll thread, I like them all. Any well done pickup deserves credit where due. I can appreciate a well built GMC just as much as a Chevy.

I think the main purpose of this board is that we all just love ALL 67-72 pickups.

GREASEMONKEY72 · 06-12-2008, 07:17 PM

I had a 68 GMC that was one sweet ride but.... I still like the Chevys

I have a 68 Chevy and put a 68 GMC grill on because I luv the bright work and dual headlights. Oh by the way, I put the bow tie back on the GMC grill.

OrangeCrush1970 · 06-13-2008, 03:35 PM

62 - 69 IIRC. Thet started out in '62 as the sister car to Chevy II, but moved to A body platform in 1964. Here's a '67 and a '65. The last pic a '63 Beaumont Arcadian.

I'm sorry to say this, and I am a die hard Chevy man, but that '67 looks better than the '67 Chevelle (and I love the '67 Chevelle!) IMO.

Here's the rear of it for those not familiar. I think Chrysler ripped off the taillights for the '69 Roadrunner!

usdabeef · 06-13-2008, 10:22 PM

I actually am a fan of both. The 70 Jimmy shown was my favorite. I now drive the 72 cheyenne.

subalternnavert · 06-13-2008, 11:07 PM

I like GMC's. Course it takes a chevy owner modifying or replacing the engine to get as much torque as me in a '67 gas burner.

67_C-30 · 06-13-2008, 11:10 PM

I found this tonight, and it is one of the best looking GMC's I've seen in a while!
