Re: Time for some longhorn love, show pics
Saw this longhorn on another thread, needs to be here for all longhorn fans to appreciate. IMO, 67-72 trucks look great in any configuration, the owner of this longhorn kept it looking the way GM built it. Bravo !

Re: Time for some longhorn love, show pics
Time for this thread to get bumped. I don't think this one has been posted yet. I first saw this truck at Vintage Torque Fest roughly 6 years ago. I saw it again at the MCACN show in Chicago in 2019 and it made an appearance at the Des Moines Goodguys this year. This is one of the nicest Longhorns I have seen. For being an all original type resto, my only complaint is they filled the Longhorn seam. Kind of kills the look IMO. But overall the truck and camper are spotless.
SSTim, if you're still checking in, this is for you. ![]()

Re: Time for some longhorn love, show pics
No Longhorn emblems on the bed. Can't tell if the holes are there or maybe a repaint and filled holes? Is this supposed to have lower trim?

As I understand it, the Longhorn emblem was hit or miss, I don't remember if it was a plant thing or year of assembly.

Re: Time for some longhorn love, show pics
My truck is from Fremont. It does not have the Longhorn scripts. I read somewhere here that they weren't installed, in '70. Possibly even in this thread!
Also, the wood in the bed is painted orange.

Re: Time for some longhorn love, show pics
The bed wood was installed before paint, so the floor was body color.

Like Larry said, should have been body color. 90% of the ones I find/see are a dark bare color but that's because the paint was gone from the wood from years of exposure. Most of the ones I find have no wood left. ![]() I've had a couple of 70s with the Longhorn script on them so who knows.

Re: Time for some longhorn love, show pics
I'll answer 2 Questions here. Not all Longhorn scripts had the pins and they did put them on in 1970. This being an Oshawa truck maybe that was the only plant that put em on in 1970.
