Have you seen it?

1967 C-10 with the new emblems? Man it's sure pretty!
Chevy performance has it at the Sema show!

I have not seen it person, but it does look really nice.

I can't figure out why they used the 67. I would think the 68 would have went better with 2018 anniversary addition.

Only reason I can figure is it's the first year of the body change to the new era.
I love the front emblem.

It's probably not a "real" 67 anyway, at least the cab isn't.

Check out the giant key and cigarette lighter holes, 68+ items. They were about half that size for a 67.

It's *probably* a pieced together aftermarket truck made to resemble a 67, but I agree with the sentiment that a gold/white 68 anniversary truck would have been much more appropriate.

Yeah, maybe more appropriate, but doesn't it have something to do with the blue color? I may be dreaming on that one.

extd56 · 11-01-2017, 05:49 PM

Plus they said they cut down a long bed frame and bed

BCOWANWHEELS · 11-01-2017, 05:54 PM

Mirrors, tires n wheels are a neg to me

**special-K** · 11-01-2017, 06:03 PM

Cool truck, very nice. But they missed by a year. The '68 is 50 this year, the perfect central split between 50th and 100th years. "67s are cool because no side markers but that doesn't matter on a truck modernized for the 100thanniversary. Side markers, especially the very first yea, are more appropriate here

harpo231 · 11-01-2017, 06:08 PM

If you can't be positive -Don't post!

tutone · 11-01-2017, 07:30 PM

(Not content to simply plunk a clean survivor or a well-restored example on its stand at SEMA, Chevrolet sourced a rare ’67 C-10 long-bed pickup equipped with the rare large rear-window option and let its in-house team work its magic. After shortening the frame and cargo box, they applied a coat of Centennial Blue paint and then lowered the suspension with modified front control arms, dropped spindles, and custom springs. A front disc-brake conversion with genuine Chevrolet parts replaced the hoary old drums, and a set of 20-inch forged aluminum wheels (8.5 inches wide in front, 10 inches wide in the rear) replaced the original steelies and were wrapped in 255/40 and 295/40 rubber. Several classic and modern hot-rodding touches finish off the exterior: smoothed and tucked bumpers and tailgate, brushed aluminum trim, LED lighting inside and out, custom gauges in the instrument cluster, an updated bench seat—with a Chevrolet logo, natch—and porcelain white interior trim accents.)
Write up on the other thread about the truck on the front page. I like the truck just fine, though chrome bumpers suit me more, but they didn't build it to suit me.

weq92f · 11-01-2017, 08:22 PM

My truck doesn't have any external badges or emblems, nothing identifies it as a chevy.

Once these new emblems and badges hit market, this may change!

So... when will we be able to order them?

I figure the grill one may be too big but the fender may work just fine!

**leddzepp** · 11-01-2017, 08:28 PM

A factory cut down short bed

You can order them now. Not sure about the one on the side though but the front and back are. They are not cheap though!

Why does there have to be so much negativity in a thread like this. Chevy didn't do this to meet your expectations! They did what they did and I for one thank them for recognizing our model of truck. The fact is if you really like our models you wouldn't ever say anything negative about them no matter what they look like.

Leonard60 · 11-01-2017, 08:58 PM

Hell I'll take it and I'd like to have a 2018 too so I could park them side by side. They would look good together.

harpo231 · 11-01-2017, 08:59 PM

amen Andy

JMC1965 · 11-01-2017, 09:34 PM

love the 67...glad they chose that year. Great looking truck

This right here!!

**ho70** · 11-01-2017, 10:08 PM

I would of used a 50th truck, but I guess they wanted an iconic truck and IMHO the 67 C-10 short bed is it (I would of had a small back window though)

**jocko** · 11-01-2017, 11:10 PM

Obviously a very cool factory-made hot rod. I'm glad they do this. We all have different tastes - and nobody asked me, but I'D

have done an absolutely bone stock resto and only added the new emblems.

And I've have chosen a much less often chosen truck year, a 72....

Are you saying the 67/68 grille badge is available? I haven't seen that info anywhere, that would be awesome, do you have a P/N for it?

GM did have the 2016+ badges available but SO MANY PEOPLE bought them at once GM cancelled the orders and supposedly you can only get them now with the VIN of a 100th anniversary truck. They are supposed to be offered as a GM accessory soon though.

What sucks is that GM made the bowtie smaller when they changed the grille for the 2016, so they won't fit my 2015

Apparently the 2016 HD bowtie is the same size, but who knows if they'll do an HD version.

Front it $46 and rear is $50.

I plan on ordering a set for my blue 2015 soon, I think they'll look killer.

I was going by your post on the emblems.

67ChevyRedneck · 11-02-2017, 09:20 AM

Yeah, those are just for the "new" 2016+ trucks. I haven't seen anything for the 1967/68 yet

**ho70** · 11-02-2017, 11:25 AM

ordered a front badge-thanks for the link
