The last year is up for grabs and here are some characteristics to compare. Here are some possible generations of stovebolt engines: 1929-1936 first generation 1937-1953 second generation 1954-1962 third generation | | | | | Joined: Oct 2002 Posts: 4,066 Bolter | | Bolter Joined: Oct 2002 Posts: 4,066 | ever one has their own idea.... but the link pretty well defines it... at least in my eyes..looking forward to seeing your ride......... been almost a yr since I seen a cameo.. click here

Back in the late '50/early '60s, the V8 Chevies were called "Bent Stovebolts". So that would make the V8 trucks elegible to be called a "Stovebolt" !
