Re: most original 60-66 truck in existence?
IMHO... Pull it all out... toss it in the scrap bin and get a 63-72 front suspension for it.
:-D[/QUOTE] Way, way past that.

Re: most original 60-66 truck in existence?
OEM4ME, could you take a photo of the other side of your engine? I'm interested in what holes and hoses there are in the valve cover.

Re: most original 60-66 truck in existence?
I hear ya, factorystock. But I saw this on motion picture film. It would've been pretty tough to doctor an entire film... and for what reason? I'll try to get a screen cap of it and send it your way one of these days and see what you think. Anyway, I'm with you... the silver rings looks pretty cool. Very rare to see on the road today.

Re: most original 60-66 truck in existence?
RPO M49; only available in '66 C20's AFAIK. I think that oem4me also has a really nice '66 C20 with a TH400.

Re: most original 60-66 truck in existence?
i might be wrong but was the 400 transmission only aval. on big block cars in the 1966 Chevrolet line . if you had a small block you were set to get a 2 speed pg auto. if so this was the only turbo 400 matched to a small block and 6 cyl. for 1966 Chevrolets

Re: most original 60-66 truck in existence?
Started my Porterbuilt crossmember install. I have a buddy taking the rest home.But is there nuts, bolts steering links, manual box, or column before I cut, clamps needed? Rust free and greasy. Pork chops, bars and bolts spoken for but rear torsion crossmember is not. I'll toss everything in a box just in case.

Re: most original 60-66 truck in existence?
Bumping this thread with a saddle colored stocker that got posted on CL and sold in the blink of an eye. It probably sold to the first guy to see the ad. Anyone here?

Re: most original 60-66 truck in existence?
I forgot to ask, what was the stock ride height for the 1962s? I have seen a brochure but can't seem to locate. I know these were some of the lowest trucks per Chevy.

My Christmas wish is for more of the most original trucks in existence featured here in 2015. We need more trucks like the GMC that FactoryStock posted. I've admired that truck for a long time. It's been for sale for a long time, too. I did find a listing for it on an auto auction website a year or two ago but never could verify the sale. Anyone know what ever happened to it? Whatever the case, it's a shame that the owner isn't involved on this website. He should be.

I think what he was saying was, he was pulling original parts off his truck and saving them for someone that needs original parts for their truck.

Yep, he was... and that's what the parts for sale section is for.

Re: most original 60-66 truck in existence?
I agree.
I like this thread too, but my truck will never be in it.
