Re: 60-66 Chevy Truck spotters thread.

I've been seeing quite a few, or maybe noticing them now that i'm in the club, 60-66 chevy truck in Seattle, WA. I'll get pics of the better ones too, but this is one I see in the industrial district on my way to work. Parked outside a steel mill and clearly still a work truck.

Re: 60-66 Chevy Truck spotters thread.

I snapped a pic of this nice looking '65 while rolling thru downtown Paris Ontario. Looked pretty nice... has the accessory (or aftermarket) side steps.

Re: 60-66 Chevy Truck spotters thread.

This 1963 C10 is about 2 miles from me. Owner is the grandson and it has stayed in the family since purchased new in 1963. All original (but obviously not the extra horns, washer bottle or brake MC. Not sure about the hub caps either. He's been offered triple what it's worth but won't sell because of sentimental value.

Re: 60-66 Chevy Truck spotters thread.

A red/white '64-66 short/fleet BBW with bumper guards showed up right outside of a barn only a mile from the house recently. Spoke with the owner, it's has a 283 and three speed. He's not sure if he's going to restore it or not. Couldn't talk him out of it, but I'll check back again soon.

I can't believe I missed this photo! I know that guy, his name is Rick and he has a youtube channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7T...XyEdwfnqfpGd2g

Most of the trucks there were for sale. He has moved from that place since this picture.

Re: 60-66 Chevy Truck spotters thread.

I ran into an old friend that I haven't seen in about twenty years at a local car show this weekend. This is the '63 that he built for his Father.

Spotted this one today, just sitting in the middle of a scrap metal yard waiting for some kind soul to rescue it.

Sitting in Kingman, AZ at the KAR yard.....just in case someone is interested.

Re: 60-66 Chevy Truck spotters thread.

Am gonna pass this along instead of sitting on it. At Mike's Auto salvage on hwy 12 in Weir Ms (662 547 5100) are two '66 era short wide BIG BACK GLASS trucks. The white one has a nice body with min rust, nice sail panels on the cab & no chrome. the blue one has some left side damage to the body. Also the sister to the truck McCoyAZ just posted. Mike priced the white cab to me for $200 less doors.

Re: 60-66 Chevy Truck spotters thread.

On my way to LA and back, I saw two working trucks. I saw the first at the gas station in the morning, then saw this guys recycling rig at the scrap metal yard. He had that old Apache loaded down, might be his home as well...

Re: 60-66 Chevy Truck spotters thread.

I spotted this 64-66 Short Stepper outside a body shop in Cheektowaga NY. Exposed to the elements, all the cheap chrome parts (grille, bumper, baby moons) were rusting.

At the same spot there was an Advanced Series truck and an old Dodge rat truck, decorated for the season.

Funny thing about the 47-53 truck... many Canadians will recognize the paint scheme. There's a chain of "Montana's Cookhouse" restaurants across Canada, and in each location there'll be an old red truck usually hanging up in the rafters.

I read that there were a few US locations in NY and MI that were only open for a short time, then closed. I would assume that's where this old red truck came from.

Re: 60-66 Chevy Truck spotters thread.

I have seen this truck many times probably over the past 2 years and the cab has never left the back. I didn't look close but it looks like a 63 grill and that is a knee knocker cab on the back.
