The 322 engine equipped were a rarity in their day. This was Chev's first entry into the heavier than 2 ton market that was dominated by International, GMC, ford and others, and it took a while for them to establish themselves and most dealers were not equipped to service them. However, by the time the 409 cam out, Chev was well established. There were probably more Chev 409s hauling grain from the Texas panhandle to the gulf than any other truck. Owning a surviving 322 is a real rarity.
