I was born 9 years after my truck

gouldie · 12-12-2006, 01:02 PM

my 67's got 20 years on me.

72LoBurb · 12-12-2006, 01:02 PM

I'm a '69 and the 'burb's a '72, so I'm older by a little bit; but I'm younger than my next one, I've got a '68 'burb waiting to become mine, all mine.

bryanw1968 · 12-12-2006, 01:07 PM

Same age. We're both a '68 model.
I have tried to locate more information using a VIN# lookup site but it hardly tells me anything other than it's a 68 and it was made in St. Louis, MO.
Anybody have a good site I could try to get some better details on it?
Thanks!

My truck could be my son or my grandson if i started earlier.

Bob Moore · 12-12-2006, 01:37 PM

I have a 67 and I'm going to be 65 in March.

TP from Cntl PA · 12-12-2006, 01:45 PM

Younger than the cab and chassis, but older than the Cummins under the hood

kyull67 · 12-12-2006, 02:09 PM

Mine's got nearly twenty years on me.

jimmydean · 12-12-2006, 05:12 PM

My truck and my wife were both made in '69, I was made in '71. She requires less work than my truck, so no issues there

zacut · 12-12-2006, 05:14 PM

both 67's, me and the truck that is!

JAKES 68GMC · 12-12-2006, 05:45 PM

Mines got 23 years on me.

PanelDeland · 12-12-2006, 05:56 PM

No question about it,I'm older than the truck and have more rust.I also never fixed stone wheels,however I did found the company that made tablets for Moses!

lowrollin70gmc · 12-12-2006, 06:09 PM

My 70's twice my age. I bought it when she was 33 and I had just turned 15, so 18 yrs my senior.

Hook'em · 12-12-2006, 06:27 PM

I am younger than most of the truck, but older than the front clip.

Truck - '69
Me - '70
Front Clip - '71

gojo00 · 12-12-2006, 07:30 PM

My 67 has 8 yrs on me!

**LockDoc** · 12-12-2006, 09:20 PM

Well, most of you guys are just young whipper-snappers. (old Gabby Hayes saying) Let's see how many of you remember him!!!!! Anyway, I'm 24 years older than my '67 and we're both tired & cranky.....

**John Fabris** · 12-12-2006, 09:41 PM

I am younger then my truck, but only by one year.....

I am the same age as my current daily driver, my 68 Olds 442, great car!!!!

Robin · 12-12-2006, 09:57 PM

I'm older than my 72, but my son is younger than his 70.

Aarons72s · 12-12-2006, 10:03 PM

Im 83 vintage.
My trucks are 72 vintage.
So they got 11 years on me. And I wouldnt have it any other way. lol

LUV2XCLR8 · 12-12-2006, 10:23 PM

Well, technically I'm older than both of mine, but one has a 68 nose
conversion so only half of it is older

so I am 25% A and 75% C

Americanrider · 12-12-2006, 10:27 PM

I was just 5 when my 67 was made, just learning to ride my first "sting-ray" bike and watching Adam West play Batman on TV. My Army squad used to give me flack about being the oldest. When they found out I was a Mechaninc before I switched to MP they would ask "Where you a Stone-Wheel mechanic?" I told them nope, but I was on the pit crew for BenHur's racing team.

Anyways, I've got 10 years on my oldest truck 1968

Elsie72 · 12-12-2006, 10:38 PM

I was born 4 years after my truck, but Grandpa was 74 when he bought it used in 1974.

sick69 · 12-12-2006, 10:50 PM

my 70 has 3 years(1973) on me so there isn't much difference. just may end up growing old together.
