No Chevy representation here! Notice how stock wheels were the majority back in the day?

OMG Tim, I think you and my forklift mechanic went to creative numbers school together... he just sent an invoice for $2230.35 for my brake repair. It claims he took 18.4 hours and 8 pairs of shoes, 6 wheel cylinders, 4 inner grease seals, 3 inner bearings, 2 master cylinders and 10 gallons of 90 wt oil to do the brakes on two wheels. Oh I forgot 2 gallons of brake fluid.....

Recalculating.

BTW, can someone make that attachment in post #503 show up as a picture. the post doesn't make since without the pic of the Corvette with the camper. Of course the pic doesn't make since "with" the Corvette with the picture.

Actually,a Chevy is a GMC. Think about it

dhaymaker · 03-13-2014, 11:45 AM

This was my Dad's '61 Chevy. It was a company car he used as a sales representative for Lorillard Tobacco Company (back then called P. Lorillard Tobacco) and this picture was taken in August 1961! Ironically, I later had a '61 2-door sedan very much like this...until I started swapping out engines on a regular basis! LOL

dhaymaker · 03-13-2014, 11:49 AM

This is a terrible picture! Probably taken in the "Snow Storm" of 1978, and I was living in Hawaii at the time, by my Mom. This was Dad's GMC and it was a nice truck. 307, 3 OTT, and it was perfect when he bought it as a used truck. I think it was only around 2 or 3 years old when he found it and brought it home one night!

**allchevy58** · 03-13-2014, 12:19 AM

Here's one I found of my dad's truck, about 1973.

Now that jeep is on one sketchy road! Any one know where that was taken?

It's Black Bear Pass right here in Colorado, near Telluride... I think that pic is from an old Warn winch ad or something.

I work in Telluride and Black Bear is not that sketchy anymore. Still a little hairy in a few spots, but not like that!

**WIDESIDE72** · 03-16-2014, 09:02 AM

That photo of the square body with the jeep in it reminds me of a photo my uncle has of his 73 ford crew cab 4x4 hauling an allis chalmers "g" tractor (rear engine tractor with the same four cylinder flathead continental engine as dads lincoln welding machine- dad bought it to repair a backup welder but liked the little g too much to scavenge it!) in the bed. (It probably only weighed half what that jeep does. That looks sketchy.)

**special-K** · 03-16-2014, 09:40 AM

I think that's probably quite a drop. No thank you,not me! I wonder if it was driven there or placed by a chopper.

Z10 · 03-24-2014, 10:39 PM

The one that got away. My 1968 Z/28. Bought this for the princely sum of $1150 back in 1971. Flash forward to 1974, gas has shot from 23cents to 36cents, I convinced myself I needed something more economical to drive when I was in college. So I traded in for ..................wait for it...............a 73 Vega GT. They gave me $650 for my Z/28 in trade. What a bone head decision.

PepperTreeGarage · 03-25-2014, 02:25 AM

Since my '72 C20 build is on the back burner for now, I thought I would go through all the old pics we have. Seeing as my wife and I have become the default "Keepers Of The Old Pics" in our collective families, I think we'd like to share the automotive related ones in this cool thread......
This is Mom and me in March of '63 with our new to us '59 Bel Air......
