Re: Real Mexican Trucks
Seems like almost all of these trucks were heater deletes.... I think in Mexico they treat heater cabs like we treat a/c cabs!
These trucks look alot like the tri-fives fleet option trucks.. These trucks were the absolute cheapest truck you could get, they were practically built just by using chevy and gmc's scraps and were modified and thrown together to make a truck... The beds look like modified 60 to 66 fleetsides. Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: Real Mexican Trucks
I find it interesting all the Mexican trucks use the 67-8 dash cluster and steering wheel instead of changing in 69. I also find it interesting that they are all short beds, did they not make a long bed in Mexico. I do love the camper truck though.

Re: Real Mexican Trucks
Interesting to see these trucks as they were sold in other countries. I wonder why the Mexican versions had that odd bed that doesn't look like it really belongs on any generation truck. Ever see any Mexican stepsides?

Re: Real Mexican Trucks
Well, I think you have to travel south beyond the border.
Pues, creo que tienes que viajar al sur mas allá de la frontera.
