Re: ChevyLand ‘The Truck Photo Tour’
^ Nice! Round eyes means '73-'75. They went rectangular in '76, IIRC. That doesn't pin it down much, though.

Wow that’s a really nice truck. I’m not real big on the campers but great truck.

Re: ChevyLand ‘The Truck Photo Tour’
I had a 79 Suburban, it had round head lights - though perhaps trucks dropped rounded headlights sooner? I do miss it, I was silly trading it in back in '96. The dealer gave me only 1 grand for it (it had zero rust and was straight as an arrow). It had a 454, TH350, 373 with towing package (pretty sure it had a posi rear end too). It would give you whip lash if you punched it (my son would go WEEEE when I did it) and swear I could see the gas gauge move down too! The odd thing it didn't have a 3rd seat (guess that was a option?) but I loved the pull down gate and lowing the window in the back (A/C only half worked, which in Texas that is basically not working). Though I could load the back of it with tons of stuff and tools. It was like a permanent covered pickup LOL
A little story about this Suburban. I bought it from my landlord, which I had an awesome relationship with. I noticed he wasn't driving it one day and I asked about it. He said I am getting rid of it. I said how much and he said he was trying to get 2k for it but he'll sell it to me for $800 bucks. I proceeded to scrape up $800 (which was really hard being newly married and with my 1st kid). A few days later after I bought it he then asked me why wasn't driving it... I said it won't start and I hadn't figured it out the problem. He then proceeded to have it towed and taken it to his "guy" and had it brought back running again. I asked what did I owe him, he said not a damn thing, "I sold you a running truck". The receipt was in the glovebox, $600+ for a complete new ignition (from plugs to distributor module). Now picture this fellow ... going on at least 80, over 6ft tall, a bit lanky, and always in khakis western wear with a cowboy hat that looked like the clothes just came off the store rack. Classic Texan, through and through... I miss that fellow - RIP Mr. Dews.

Re: ChevyLand ‘The Truck Photo Tour’
I can't remember if it was a Chevy or GMC ... I know it had the number "15" on the side where as all the other Suburban had 10 or even 20. At the time I couldn't wait to get rid of it, it ate sooo much gas, I think I was lucky to get 6 MPG and it hurt to fill up that 40 gallon tank - that would last me maybe a week. Also I hated the woodgrain - it seemed so fake and dated (it was a light Tan color for the paint and perhaps two tone with white). Funny thing is, I LOVE the woodgrain NOW! Funny how things change LOL
