"Latest Stuff" ?



I recall riding in my friends '63 shortbox with a 292, in '68.
Must have had a 4.10 rear end!

Re: 60-66 designation

Looking at the advertising from that era Chevrolet did not have a tag line like the AD and TF trucks. I also lurked over in the 60-66 board for a while and did not see anyone using any descriptive verbs.

Re: 60-66 designation

Thanks. As I expected. Curious, not concerned.

That would explain us referring to them as C10 pickups and K5 Blazers all these years.

Here to learn.
Thank you.
