Re: If you didn't have a 67-72 Chevy what year would want?

Okay, when these trucks were introduced for the '67 model year, they offered creature comforts that had been limited to cars. I get it.

I had a '38 GMC, and I've also had a pair of '61 Apaches, four '65's, and my '69, as well as a pair of '96's. The '38 was a project that was sold as I moved back home in '71. Nostalgia makes me wish I had kept it, and built it as a street rod. But, the 65-year old, 265-lb me knows it would be a tight fit to drive. Oh, but nowhere near as tight as the '40 Bantam pickup I once owned.

The '67-72's are a great compromise for the range that I have owned. Even though I was not impressed with the change in styling that GM introduced for '67, I do like them now.

So, I'm staying with what I have.
