Some cool old pictures - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

These are two of the trucks that my parents had, this one in 1986. It is not a great picture, but it is a '68 in pretty rough condition.

And this is a '70 they had until '89. This one was nice.

Funny thing is, my mom is the one that loved these trucks, and my dad the one that sold them. My mom looked through dozens of auto traders until she found these. The '68 was bought and sold for $500, and the '70 was sold for $900.
I wonder where I caught the bug?

Nice pictures!

I like seeing truck pictures regardless of the condition.

The long box looks really familiar. Any chance that it went ot Michigan?

I wish I could track them, it would be interesting to see where they went. They were in Norfolk VA, with lots of military families in the neighborhood, so who knows? My mom says a young guy, probably in his early 20's, bought it and said he was going to work on it.

These are some old pictures of my dad's car's and my mom's. My dad retired from Chevorlet and we had some pretty nice cars. Here are a few some before I was born and some after. These first car's are when my dad just had started with Chevorlet.

I love these old pictures of Chevies. The 64 ss was my 3 oldiest brothers until my brother wrecked it going to see his girlfriend, that's setting on it. Now she' s his wife for over 20 years. My dad rebuilt it while he was the techincal trainer for Chevy in Charlotte. That car was awsome with a speacial paint job. Cadillaic gold the cadillaic dealer in Charlotte painted it for him.

The camaro was my mom's at first then my brother who wrecked the Impala bought it. My dad ordered it for a company car. I can't remember all the 454 chevells, 396 camaro's he had. He even had 2 1969 yes 2 1969 convertiable pace car camaro's at one time, just to take the soap box derby winners around.
