**GMCPaul** · 02-06-2003, 04:52 AM

Got a few # for you all.
GMC Truck & Coach Production Figures
1967- 130,659
1968- 127,294
1969- 150,180
1970- 121,833
1971- 170,085
1972- 193,537
Those numbers are for light duty C&K 1500-3500, Vans, medium and heavy duty trucks, buses, RV's and specialty vehicles for military, fire, etc....
In 1967 GMC built 116,639 GMC's at their Pontiac plant.
1,408 at Flint,MI
284 in St Louis, MO
11,551 in Fremont, CA
354 in Baltimore, MD
and 423 in Tarrytown, NY

In 1969 there were 58,920 GMC made in Pontiac
16,903 at Flint
31,650 at St Louis
21,270 in Fremont
2,300 in Lakewood GA
958 in Janesville, WI
10,213 in Baltimore
7,965 in Tarrytown
In 1970 the Jimmy joined the GMC line with the first being built October 16th, 1969, Anyone here own it?
In 1971 there were
47,805 GMC's made in Pontiac 1,870 of these were Coaches
24,180 at Flint
15,831 in Fremont
1,826 in Van Nuys, CA
8,504 Lakewood
13,707 Baltimore
28,707 St Louis
3,151 Leeds, MO
2,834 Tarrytown
16,131 Lordstown
1,038 Janesville
Light Duty Trucks began getting sold with greater options being asked for in 1971 for both GMC & Chevy,
in 1971 combined averages for GMC & Chevy were
46% had V8's
49% had automatic trans
18% had A/C
38% Power Steering
52% Power Brakes
.9% had AM/FM

1972 saw a total of 94,469 trucks built at all plants that were 6,000 lbs GVW or less, 45,937 that were 6,001-10,000lbs

I have found a few other GM sources I have contacted to see about us getting into the Pontiac archives to get further GMC production data so that we can break it down even further on models and quantity produced each year and #'s of various options on those trucks that were made and will let all know when I find out more.
Please don't swamp me with questions I'll post all available figures as I am able to acquire them from GM and GMC truck division, this is all I have for now which may not seem like alot but its a ton more than previously known.
We do have all light duty figures compiled and available for 1974-2002 GMC trucks though and I hope to get all these figures published to our site this month.

Nice going Paul! Very handy to know. Interested in Canadian prod. numbers too, if available. Now, if we can only find out how many are still rolling.

Well I'll be jiggered! Looks like I have a relatively rare truck as Cdn. built 67-72's go. 1970 production year is the least by more than 10,000 trucks at 15,609 trucks built (could be 16,609, the number sits right on the crease in the center of the page).

Considering how long they last in this country I'll bet there aren't many around now. Thanks again Paul.

Thanks Paul,

reference.
