*Gee_Emm* · 06-02-2003, 06:51 PM

The Silverado part?

69sixpackbee · 06-02-2003, 07:51 PM

Did'nt '67's have the small window?

**Palf70Step** · 06-02-2003, 07:53 PM

67's could havce both small and big windows from what I have heard on the board.

**COBALT** · 06-02-2003, 08:24 PM

All the back windows used to be small with the "panoramic" option to make it bigger pre '67. That year panoramic became standard, so smaller windows are harder to find.

The "Silverado" thing may be just the constraints of listing the add. If you try to find C10 or C20 on the Chevy site you won't find it. It'll force you to pick something like "Silverado". Other "for sale" sites do that too. Anything older than '85 and you can't find the vehicle's name.

327 didn't show up til 68......283 was the only V8 in 67

knucklebuster · 06-02-2003, 10:22 PM

I may have misunderstood cobalt's remark or I may be wrong all together but wasn't the small window from factory and the big window an option in 67?

*Gee_Emm* · 06-02-2003, 10:43 PM

67's came with small windows standard, big windows(panormaic) were an option

Some early 68's had small windows

The option sticker on my 67 shows 327c.i. 4 spd trans and 4:10 posi trac rear end. And it has the small back window. This option was only available with the CST option, so I've been told.

Gee Emm and Chevy Wrench are correct.

283 was the standard V8 in 67 and 327 was optional.

Small back window was standard in 67 and the big back window (Panoramic) was optional.
