Does anyone have this pic???

Does somebody have a bigger pic of this? Particularly the "cab measurements" part in the upper right hand side of the page? I can't read the measurements.

Re: Does anyone have this pic???

Now I am a little confused; the link that 71swb4x4 posted shows measurement "A" as 39 1/2", measurement "B" as 14 1/8", measurement "D" as 4", and measurement "F" as 53". The brochure he linked was for a 1968 truck, so that's right, what gives? These measurements are much different than the 1968brochure that SS Tim posted.

Steve, sorry I don't know why the discrepancy. I didn't see the link Tim posted, and I just scanned a 68 brochure that I have here. The one I scanned is dated Dec. 1967. It is a 68 brochure. I checked the link and that's a 68 brochure also(Dated August, 1967), The leg room discrepancy is the puzzler to me.

Corrected link
http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...d.php?t=509731

The brochure I used was the August,1967 edition (as 71swb4x4, Bruceman1968 and 67_C-30 have posted) vs the December,1967 that Bruceman1968 used initally. Errors creep in, that is why they do revisions.

Actually Steve you are in error as well in reguards to the "D" dimension.

August, 1967 vs December,1967 pickup brochures.

A...39 1/2" vs 40"

B...14 1/8" vs 15 3/4"

C...15 1/2" vs 16"

D...6" vs 4"

E...14" vs 14"

F...53" vs 45"

While these things happen it appears that the leg room is the real "problem" figure, that Chevy did not indicate in earlier 67 nor 69 and later model year brochures. In fact my 70MY engineering documentation lists the now "effective" modified dimension "F" to the accelerator pedal as 40.25" (rounded to 41") in a generalized drawing. The remaining numbers are very close to the later 68 brochure dimensions.
Now is this something you really needed to know? Why?

I am replacing the factory bench with late model buckets and I wanted to get them positioned close to original specifications.
