1960 -66 Truck literature, ads, post cards, books, posters, manuals

[1963c-10]

Ok, so I'm sure that I'm not the only guy out there with a huge collection. Haven't seen a thread specifically on this, so here goes.

I'd like to see what 60-66 chevy/gmc literature you guys have. Dealer data info, silver books, engineer books, posters, postcards, advertising, fliers, brochures.....lets see what you have.


These are some of the show room posters that chevy hung up. All have the chevy logo, and I've seen these from the early 50's through mid-late 60's. I have seen around 15-20 different ones.

[1963c-10]

A couple of prints that I picked up. A 63 magazine ad and the 63 chevy truck silver book.

[1963c-10]

Dealer training manuals and a 63 engineer book.

[1963c-10]

Some brochures and fliers and the Chevy service news from late 62-63

[1963c-10]

The 63 custom features book and a few post cards. There is also a smaller handout on the custom features.

[1963c-10]

More dealer post cards, mailers, brochures and a magazine ad

[1963c-10]

More brochures, the 63 truck model book, magazine ad and a book on the 12 bolt rear diffs.

[1963c-10]

Some more dealer training books, magazine ad, dealer price & fact book, metal fuse holder and a paint chip sheet

[1963c-10]

Very cool brochure on all the car/truck models. Each has their own fishing fly...I posted the truck fly. Also the good old 60-66 assembly book.

[1963c-10]

Custom accessories book, perfect book if installing any factory accessories. Has a ton of templates in it also. The parts catalog is for the larger trucks, but tons of pics and diagrams....I'm still looking for an affordable 1/2 - 3/4 model book. The 63 shop book (my truck bible) and the flat rate book. Last is a power steering handout.

[1963c-10]

The 1st three is a very cool poster/brochure...around 2 feet long and in full color. I have two, one to frame for the shop and the 2nd is for the collection. The picture is 8.5x11 dealer picture and more paint chips.

[1963c-10]

More power steering ads and 65 paint chips.

[1963c-10]

Last one for the day. Im still looking for the poster on the right if anybody has any leads....I still find some new stuff every now and then, but its getting harder to find stuff I don't have yet. This one is Aerotruk63's.....I know hes got some literature to add. Mine is mostly Chevy and 63 related, but I do find some Canadian and GMC stuff from time to time. Does anybody have any of the dealer model trucks?

Couple of dealer posters.

When I can find better WiFi I'll play.

I knew you'd find this thread of some interest. My pics aren't the best, but they'll have to do.

[TJ's Chevy]

Man I wish I had all those books!!! LOL! Especially the ones about the engines! Nice work on collecting those!

[1963c-10]

Thanks TJ...its a few years of collecting. A lot of it is dealer literature and still very useful. I have used quite a few of these over the years. Some are specific applications....like the GM borg warner T-16 trans manual. GMC trucks used them in 68 ( I don't know the application) as did chevy Camaro, chevelle & Pontiac firebird from 66-68 behind big block applications. I have two, so it was nice to find the factory documentation even though its not 60-66 specific.

There is a ton of stuff out there, just have to look for it. I wasn't aware there was so much stuff circulated until I started collecting it. Some of the stuff was dealer or show room use only.

The ad on the engines pops up from time to time on ebay TJ. Think I paid like $2 for it.

[60-66]

Nice collection ! Will ad a few things myself. Are you apposed to Chevy or GMC truck porcelain signs being posted in this thread ?

I have a 1967 T16 out of a 1967 427 Milwaukee Police car, One heavy duty 3 speed.

[1963c-10]

Thanks 60-66. The thread is open to any and all 60-66 gmc/chevy litereature / memorabilia...etc....US, Canadian, Mexican, any country.


I have two of the T16's...very heavy / tough transmissions. Mine will be behind a 427 also.

[1963c-10]

I haven't gotten to the serious sign collecting myself...just a few repop GM service parts signs. The originals bring big bucks when they pop up.

Lost this catalog to rain and snow, poverty strikes.





These booklest came in a training film box.

[1963c-10]

Very cool info there. Some of the harder to find stuff is the dealer and salesman info in my opinion, probably due to less being produced. Got some more stuff to keep my eyes peeled for now too!!!

I do have a salesman magazine also to add.

The dealerships had some pretty cool promotional items also!!

[60-66]

Heres my collection of Chevrolet Truck Dealer posters. For some reason Im missing a picture of the 65 poster.

[1963c-10]

Very cool.....im drooling over the 63 poster, been looking for a long time. I don't know that I've ever seen them all together like that. Thanks for sharing them!!

The first four slideshows are from a 1963 Product Training Service package sent to dealers. They take 5hrs. plus to transfer from 35mm film to digital and to digitally copy audio from the records that match the film, editing takes forever. I'll be making more from the 1963 COMMUNCATION KITS I have.
