Re: Show Us Your Lits
I thought that`s what it said back there.Well,it`s an accessorized truck.I guess they`re saying a rancher could get the emblem from the dealer and stick it on his truck.I actually had that thought when I first saw that emblem and didn`t know what it was.Here`s another.I wonder how long it took that truck to rust out?Santa Monica Mountains in the background:

Re: Show Us Your Lits
The longhorn pictured up top is a drawing. I have a few pieces of factory lit that shows the longhorn badge in the wrong location on 69's, but these were all pre-preduction vehicles, so nothing was set in stone.
As for the hub caps... it's a drawing, and either they never expected anyone to scrutinise it this much, or the artist was sniffin glue. I'd post everything I have... but wow, that'd take a while. |

Re: Show Us Your Lits
ok... you guys ready to see how bad I got it?
I'll start with truck adds, some framed on the wall, some just framed awaiting room to be hung, and still more awaiting frames to be placed into, residing in document protectors in a 3 ring binder. All these ones are longhorn adds, or at least mention the longhorn. |

Re: Show Us Your Lits
oops, the 2 50th annv longhorns there are actually a brochure.
Anyways... on with the madness; 1 longhorn add, 2 longhorn articles, and 2 non-longhorn adds. Yes, I devide trucks into 2 classes, longhorns........ and 'other' Oh yeah, and that 2nd article there, is actually a 3 page article that my girlfriend got me for X-mas. Does she rock or what?

maybe I'm not a truck junkie, but a truck lit junkie.
And yes, that is an add for washer solvent. Last edited by Longhorn Man; 06-18-2006 at 08:38 PM. |

Re: Show Us Your Lits

These (along with the 3 above) are restoration packets from GM. Look on the FAQ on how us in the US can get them for free, and canadians can get them for 50 bucks. I actually have more that I am unable to locate at the moment. Plus there is the 3 owners manuals (70 and 72 chevy, and 69 GMC) then all the paper work that came with my first 70, recall papers, order form, option list paper, warranty booklet, then the build sheet from my one ton and a few print outs of others build sheets... I'm sure I have more around here somewhere |

Re: Show Us Your Lits
I like the one,"30 Years Ahead Of It`s Time."It`s all good,I love it.Is the "Silver Book" an ordering book?I have on of those for`71.SeeTen,that`s your truck!Here`s a repeat of yours I had ready to load,but got distracted yesterday.I experimented with resolution and came up with the automatic setting that`s been used.I`ll send copies,not sure if I can get any better.Then something different,an old Car Craft magazine,1956.
See a familiar name on the cover?
