Re: how old are you 60 -66 owners
OK I thought I posted this but guess not,
I am 46 as of March 26th, I was born in 63 so I had to get a 63, and it is fitting that it is a C20 as I am a little hefty as well. I had a 62 Shortbed when I was 21, actually it was the wifes, and I think I married her to get her truck, so when she figured that out she made me sell it. So not much longer after that I bought a 63 from a neighbor, and when she made me sell that one, I sold it to my dad, who gave it to my brother, I figured I could get it back some day, no dice. So I ditched that wife, and when I re-married, I told the new wife that she goes before the cars do. So now I have a 66 tempest in the backyard (complete car but very ruff future GTO clone), a 68 firebird in the garage (also complete car won't take much to restore), and a 70 baja bug in storage (85% finished but put on hold while I finish the C20), and she hasn't run away yet, so I guess I will keep her. |

Re: how old are you 60 -66 owners
I always say I'm only as old as I feel and most days that's right about 25, 18 on Friday night and 75 on Saturday morning. My birth certificate says 31, but I never listen. Oh, had my 64 for 3 years now. Just starting the frame off.

Re: how old are you 60 -66 owners
I am Dan and I am 38. I bought my 66 LWB a couple of years ago from the father-in-law. It is a lot rougher than it looks. I plan to build the truck with and for my boy who just turned 10. The build will start in a couple of months.

Re: how old are you 60 -66 owners
Good for you. I started passing tools in the garage when I was about 5, and my sons grew up doing the same thing. It's a great bonding experience and they grow up with mechanical aptitude and comprehensive skills.

Re: how old are you 60 -66 owners
Fifty-two here. When you put it in perspective, the truck (63) does not seem that old. Those of us who remember un-jamming gears etc. in "good clothes" have a special appreciation for really DRIVING the trucks that are now our hobby. I am not knocking anyone because my 63 is my daily driver (by choice) now.

I was pretty young when these trucks were new. Even so, two clear memories stand out, how ugly the GMC hood was, and what happened to the new stepside fenders, those were the same fenders off the "old" trucks. Seemed ridiculous that brand new trucks didn't get matching fenders that fit the design of the new truck. |

Love the wheel covers. They use to be so common but just aren't seen anymore.

Re: how old are you 60 -66 owners
I am 23. This is my first older truck, though I had a '78 Plymouth Volare a few years back. Since then I owned a Toyota Camry
Had to get back to the Iron Age. Heh, but the painjob on my truck matches my Camry. Last edited by Amperes; 09-13-2009 at 03:01 PM. Reason: spelling |
