60-66's at Spokane Goodguys this AM

Here are a few truck photos from the Goodguys Spokane show this morning. We had to leave at 11:30. We’ll see what tomorrow brings:

Here’s a very clean 1966 with factory air, sunken antenna and outline lettering on the tailgate:







And here’s one of the most impressive trucks I’ve ever seen. The is the supercharged glass topped long bed Captainfab shot a couple of weeks ago:

Here it is arriving:



A 368 pound sheet of glass covers the bed. Not sure how he fills the bottle. I was going to ask but he got swarmed with admirers.







The engine is really impressive and sounds as good as it looks:





And here’s the best I could do at capturing the paint. It’s beautiful in real life, much nicer than I can show in a photo:

Re: 60-66's at Spokane Goodguys this AM

And here are a few more:

A supercharged 60. I believe the owner said he got the truck when he was 13:



And a for sale 1963 C30:

Thanks for the shots, Mark. I wanted to come over but couldn't. There were only 6 or 7 at Puyallup and I posted them a couple weeks ago.

If you walk by that black 66 tomorrow would you mind looking at the tire and rim size for me.
Thanks

That is interesting. It looks like he might have put a modern tailgate latching system in with the handle inside (which is cool and I've been thinking about trying) so the glass must lift somehow.

Re: 60-66's at Spokane Goodguys this AM

IIRC, there are hydraulic cylinders to lift the top. I didn't realize that that cover was glass. I thought it was a polycarbonite.

I managed to photograph one of the wheels. They are Detata brand according to the hubcap. The tire size is 245/50R16. I didn’t see the owner to ask the wheel width.





And here are a few more trucks I didn’t see yesterday:

How about a chopped 64-66 GMC. The whole truck looked great, and particularly the chop itself:







This was in the for sale area. Not my cup of tea but had a lot of work invested:



A lowered 1963 long step:



And of course we had our truck at the event:

Re: 60-66's at Spokane Goodguys this AM

Thanks for the pics! I always look forward to show pics, we don't have as many opportunities as the rest of the country to check out trends/rides.

Any side pics of the white extended cab??

Re: 60-66's at Spokane Goodguys this AM

It was good to see you and your son again Mark I got tied up and didn't make it back over there before you left.

I don't know how I missed that white extended cab. I saw that one last month, make a U-turn in the parking lot while at the swap meet. I would have liked to get a better look at it. I see he's from Benewah county.

It was pretty easy to miss. It was hidden in the corner outside the fence of the swap meet area, opposite the stairs going down to the main field (circled). This photo was shot Friday. On Saturday the area to the left of the circle was filled with cars and people. I didn’t even see the truck until I was almost in front of it. And it took a while for enough people to move to get the picture, which is why I didn’t get any more.
