I thought this might be an interesting poll. Look at your VIN to tell. The 6th digit will tell you.

woodrow59 · 06-08-2002, 08:29 PM

Yaaaaahhh,,,,,It's a hoser.....

Got the original owners plate around here somewhere,,,,was bought by a guy in Niagra Falls.

ckhd · 06-08-2002, 08:58 PM

I couldn't put in two "Freemont"s - one for the '68, one for the '69. The '72 pickup is Janesville, but I can't remember where the 'burb is from...

Super Chevy · 06-08-2002, 09:09 PM

St. Louis baby!!

*Randy70C-10* · 06-08-2002, 10:43 PM

Mine will soon be born-again in VA Beach!

toms68cst · 06-08-2002, 11:14 PM

Hmm, Mines Janesville. Where's Janesville anyway?

Did Burbs, Blazers and Longhorns roll off the same assembly line as trucks? Perhaps we should have had different polls for them.

JoetheMobster · 06-08-2002, 11:20 PM

Oshawa baby!!

Has all the original stickers on the glovebox door showing from Vancouver B.C. (also stating that you can get replacement parts from some company in Vancouver, with a phone #. Wonder if the phone number is still active, 32 years later?? hahaha

Oops! I only voted for my Baltimore built truck. Could someone add 1 vote for a Flint truck?

Atlanta, GA

toms68cst · 06-09-2002, 02:06 PM

Hmm. Quite a few from Fremont. Where is that city?

sub4rvr · 06-09-2002, 02:17 PM

Mine is from Flint. Were all burbs made in the same plant?
I believe Fremont is in Calif.
