Watched Footloose tonight. There's a 67-72 GMC in it, and some others

My wife pulled Footloose up on Netflix tonight. I had forgotten, but one of the main characters drives a 67-72 GMC. There are multiple other pickups from our era driving by in the background of different scenes. There's what looks like a blue early 60's Chevy being loaded at the mill with grain.

I grew up in the town where some of it was filmed, and remember as a kid driving by and seeing them filming the church scene.

Anyway, if you're in the mood to see some old trucks like ours in a movie, check it out

Lots of 67-72's in 80's movies. Of course, they weren't as old then and more accessible.

Thanks for sharing the pics.

I think Dazed and Confused has one. I was pretty stoned when watching though so the memory is foggy.
