Here's my 1961 3/4 ton. Some of these pictures are from an earlier post. I'm planning on getting a new exhaust on Monday. My kids and I are really enjoying working on this together.

Re: Post Your 60-63 Body Style Chevy/GMC Trucks

Well, I'm sure most of you have seen pictures of my truck on here before but I'll post them again for this thread. I like all 60-66 trucks but the '63 is the perfect year for me. It has the coil spring front suspension in place of the 60-62 torsion bars which makes them easy to lower and still retain decent ride quality and it's the last year for the wrap around windshield and double hump dash. I know the 64-66 A pillars are more user friendly but the wrap around windshield on the 60-63s just has so much more style and these trucks were built when the manufacturers still gave a hoot about style!!!

For lots more photos click on the links in my signature, the first one links to my photo gallery on this site and it starts with the first day I had my truck and you can follow along as it transforms from a long stepside bed truck to a short stepside then to the short fleetside that you see here today. Thanks for looking everybody! You all have some sweet 60-63 trucks!

Re: Post Your 60-63 Body Style Chevy/GMC Trucks

Here are a few pictures of the '62 GMC 1/2 ton 4x4 Suburban my brother and I bought in Medford, OR. I am flying out there to visit and we are hauling it back to Kansas City on a flatbed in the next month or so. It is all original and complete. It is also relatively rust & dent free. It should be a fun project to tinker with.

Did all of the GMC's in this time frame have the same grille?
I always like these hoods better than the Chemmys, because of the park lights.

Oh yeah, GMC used the same grille for all years. I to am very partial to the '62 and up GMC hood. They look awesome with the parking lights filled in.

Re: Post Your 60-63 Body Style Chevy/GMC Trucks

^ I now know what my next truck is going to be

I love the early wrap around windshield, I love the GMC grilles and I love Panels/Suburbans, and I want to have a 4x4 for camping.
