I bought one a couple of years ago and I'm just now getting around to finding out just what it is. So wheres all the Chevy/GMC gurus from those great years 67-72. IS IT RARE OR JUST ANOTHER TRUCK!

It's true. I really don't do anything but browse the Internet looking for trouble... | | | | | Joined: Jan 2007 Posts: 44 Wrench Fetcher | | Wrench Fetcher Joined: Jan 2007 Posts: 44 | leaves could be ordeed on a chevy but they were a rarity the chevy dealers did not do a lot of custom ordering exept in the cab chassis format possibly your truck was ordered as a cab chasis and the bed was put on the truck by the dealer because he got a good deal on a grouup of trucks in that format it was more common that way have fun joe
