1960 Panel - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

spacedebris · 04-12-2012, 05:02 PM

Hello all. I just thought I'd introduce myself. My name is Mark and I'm from Ventura, CA.

I recently purchased a 1960 panel with the extra long cargo area (10ft). Just a rolling body, no drive train and the body while very straight has rust along the drip rail (all the way around) and a bit around the windshield. I'll get some pics up later.

But I do have a request. Does anyone have a stock 60 dash that I can get pictures of. Someone really stripped out this truck and all I'm left with is a shell. I would like a couple of pictures of a stock dash for reference as I start to put it all back together (over the next few years)

thanks

sounds like a 1 ton. what will need to be known is whether it is a GMC or a Chevrolet for any one to adv of what the dash looks like.
welcome

Welcome to the forum. Here are some very poor photos of my dash taken 20 years ago when it was stock. Hopefully someone else will provide better examples:

And here’s a page from the 1960 Owners manual which may be of interest:

I'll get some pics up of what I have.

Yeah, its a 1 ton. Chevy. (I think) Thats what the Pink says anyway. There are no badges anywhere left on it and I didnt think to check the vin/ID plate.

Unfortunately I dont have room for it here at the house so it sits in storage until I can work on it. I pull it out, do a little work and then back to storage until the next time I have money to do some more to it. Its a PITA but you got to do what you got to do.
