Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
Ill throw some more controversy on the 63 4wd hubcap debate. I purchased a postcard for my 63 literature collection from 1963 taken in Berrien Springs, MI at Pennellwood resort. Postcard says taken in 1963 in a 1963 GMC truck. The truck has hubcaps....so the mystery continues?

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
No mystery, its a GMC. '62 thru '64 GMC's came with hubcaps on 4x4's, '62-'64 4x4's Chevy's did not.

Hey, on an offhand note, you know that Jimmy's from Michigan if it has a factory/dealer installed snowplow mount, lol.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
It's not rust - it's patina

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
I thought that to be a good question. So I googled rust vs patina. I found some interesting info. I posted a couple points here: http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...00#post6405300

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
hey just checked out craigslist and came across this add if anyone wants to check it out, its hub caps realated.
http://seattle.craigslist.org/tac/pts/4193448242.html sorry to throw this wrench in the gears but hubcaps did come up. if someone could paste the hubcap thread for me I'll direct it to that to diminish confusion.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
Ok....
I haven't looked at Rob's response yet (but I'm sure he'd agree).... But I think , after years of observation...., If you can see day-light through it....It's called rust. If that doesn't clear it up, then.......If you're buying it, it's rust, if you're sellin it, it's "patina".

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
i thought the same about the caps...just an old postcard i found online for the collection, and only have the info thats wrote on it & correspondence w/the seller who was a local. i dont know anything else about it. kind of odd for a resort, but like i said...i just got it to add to the collection

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
"Would you like me to check your oil, sir?"
You reply; "Sure! Also, how much to air up my tires?" The attendant answers: "Nothing- air is free. ![]() You exclaim; "What Kinda Bizarro World Is This? !!! "

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
Wow that’s so far back it reminded me of a neighbor that built his own chassis camper in 61-62. The plans came from a magazine article in something like Mechanics Illustrated. He purchased a brand new F250 cab/chassis to bolt it on. Last time I drove by around 1990 it was parked in the driveway as if it was still being used routinely.

Re: Nostalgia - Pics in Time.
My dad used to be a pump jockey back in 68-71 at an old Standard Oil station back in South Haven, Michigan. His dad was working the counter too,
