67-72 ss
If GM would have made a SS version of these trucks besides a big block what options do you think would have been on them.I know it would have been awesome!Kinda fun to imagine.

Re: 67-72 ss
Well an SS for 69 might have Chevelle scoops and side marker lights like mine:

Re: 67-72 ss
I think they did make one. It was called a CST and later a Cheyenne.

Re: 67-72 ss
the " Strip '' model would/should have had an aluminum front clip and M-22 4-speed as optional equipment....Tri-power too. ... maybe there is a Yenko or Copo white longbed fleetside hiding somewhere ...nice to think about once in awhile.... cool.

Re: 67-72 ss
Nah,that would be the equivalent to an SS396 w/vinyl top . I kept it at Cheyenne because they are just CSTs renamed.

Re: 67-72 ss
I have no idea what you're talking about . DELETED! I guess that showed the difference between during 1st cup and after 3rd . I dunno what happened. Usually it won't let you post twice.
But,you guys get my drift. A Super Sport truck is a Custom Sport Truck. Super Sport was just an appearance package. They just didn't badge the package up,but a CST big block is the equivalent to an SS396 car. It would have been cool if they did promote an SS package. I envision this in '68: *CST w/buckets *396 hi-performance *Posi/3.73 *Tach *8" wheels w/hubcaps *Black grille area and maybe inside the rear mouldings? *Comfort grip steering wheel *Some sort of hood hump(s),scoop(s) to give an aggressive attitude *SS in grille and on fender Options: *Muncie M22 option *4.10s *Front disc brakes

Re: 67-72 ss
Sounds good Tim.
Could alwys make it a Yenko with the side stripes. Use something like the Camaaro injector stacks on the SS. Hurst shifted M22. '67 plum special paint. Aluminum slot wheels. Corvettte 4 wheel disc brakes.
