Our old blue has to be... for me anyways.
A stretched short bed.

I'll play.

SIKKI, Very nice, need more pictures!!! I like that black interior!!!

**68bowtie** · 02-29-2020, 11:32 AM

I know mine isn’t THE rarest but I know it’s up there. It seems that early years (67-68) it was less common to have lots of options than in the later years. I have seen around 8-10 first year big block shortbeds online but I haven’t seen another in factory black. I don’t have the time or money for the factory restoration it deserves, but I’m saving up all the hard to find OEM brackets/etc and not modifying anything that can’t be undone later.

That's gorgeous! Very nice 68!!

tristan · 02-29-2020, 12:38 PM

Spectacular.

**Chevyland** · 02-29-2020, 12:41 PM

I was hoping you would show that one
Definitely, a rare one
And
Desirable!

GASoline71 · 03-04-2020, 12:43 PM

Rarely do I crap my pants... but if I do it's never desireable.

I think this one is pretty rare.

I agree this one is very rare, and also very desirable. Not enough photos of this beauty posted on the forum in my humble opinion.

**pryorstemmed** · 12-26-2020, 02:17 PM

This truck is rare/desirable with it's higher end package and options. You don't see too many Cheyenne Super K10 shortbeds with factory bucket seats. This one will get a full restoration back to factory colors and interior.

Thanks. Yup, going back to the original colors and interior. I will put in a 700r4 for the extra gear and keep the original th350.

Awesome, that is going to be a killer truck when your done with it.

**Canuckvetter** · 12-30-2020, 02:04 AM

I have a low production 1/2 ton 67 4x4 panel truck. I’ve been collecting parts to make it a high option money pit.

**special-K** · 01-02-2021, 08:42 AM

The rarest truck would most likely be a GMC. Take a loaded '68 SWB CST big block, as mentioned above. I have had one of those, minus automatic transmission. Two identical trucks were ordered by two brothers and they wanted 3spd manual. That actually made those trucks more rare, I'd think, since you normally see an automatic in a bells & whistles truck. But to find the same truck in a GMC would be most rare. A loaded '68 SWB Super Custom big block would be extremely rare

**72ironmike** · 01-02-2021, 09:04 AM

My first truck was a Triple Black 1971 Custom Deluxe with factory buckets. It had a 427 Tri-Power & 3 on the tree. I bought it in 1978 from a guy that had a 1968 427 Tri-Power Vette. His wife did not like the power in the Vette so he switched motors ! I remember him telling me that "nobody beats him off the line at stoplights" ! Truck had 14,000 miles on it. I sold the tri-Power and bought a friends Grampa's totaled 1972 6cyl with 42,000 miles put that in the truck. A few years later sold the 6cyl to a friend. Then, sold that truck with 17,000 miles for $800. It was pretty rare with the Tri-Power but not original. All those preceding trucks in this thread are awesome !

Back to our 70 GMC Sierra Grande. How many BB 1/2 ton special paint short beds have you seen with U01 marker lamps?

**Steeveedee** · 01-03-2021, 12:27 AM

1/2T with clearance lights is rare, no matter what. Special paint probably means a government truck, so all the more rare.

**Canuckvetter** · 01-03-2021, 09:26 AM

67 1/2 ton , CST, shoulder harness, manual throttle, marker lights.
