I have not seen it person, but it does look really nice.

I can't figure out why they used the 67. I would think the 68 would have went better with 2018 anniversary addition.

Re: Centennial...67
 

Cuz 67 is the coolest :truck:

Re: Centennial...67
 

Only reason I can figure is it's the first year of the body change to the new era.
I love the front emblem.:chevy:

Re: Centennial...67
 

It's probably not a "real" 67 anyway, at least the cab isn't.

Check out the giant key and cigarette lighter holes, 68+ items. They were about half that size for a 67.

It's *probably* a pieced together aftermarket truck made to resemble a 67, but I agree with the sentiment that a gold/white 68 anniversary truck would have been much more appropriate.

Re: Centennial...67
 

Yeah, maybe more appropriate, but doesn't it have something to do with the blue color? I may be dreaming on that one.

Re: Centennial...67
 

Plus they said they cut down a long bed frame and bed

Re: Centennial...67
 

Mirrors, tires n wheels are a neg to me

Re: Centennial...67
 

Cool truck, very nice. But they missed by a year. The '68 is 50 this year, the perfect central split between 50th and 100th years. "67s are cool because no side markers but that doesn't matter on a truck modernized for the 100thanniversary. Side markers, especially the very first yea, are more appropriate here

If you can't be positive -Don't post!

Re: Centennial...67
 

(Not content to simply plunk a clean survivor or a well-restored example on its stand at SEMA, Chevrolet sourced a rare ’67 C-10 long-bed pickup equipped with the rare large rear-window option and let its in-house team work its magic. After shortening the frame and cargo box, they applied a coat of Centennial Blue paint and then lowered the suspension with modified front control arms, dropped spindles, and custom springs. A front disc-brake conversion with genuine Chevrolet parts replaced the hoary old drums, and a set of 20-inch forged aluminum wheels (8.5 inches wide in front, 10 inches wide in the rear) replaced the original steelies and were wrapped in 255/40 and 295/40 rubber. Several classic and modern hot-rodding touches finish off the exterior: smoothed and tucked bumpers and tailgate, brushed aluminum trim, LED lighting inside and out, custom gauges in the instrument cluster, an updated bench seat—with a Chevrolet logo, natch—and porcelain white interior trim accents.)
Write up on the other thread about the truck on the front page. I like the truck just fine, though chrome bumpers suit me more, but they didn't build it to suit me.

Re: Centennial...67
 

My truck doesn't have any external badges or emblems, nothing identifies it as a chevy.

Once these new emblems and badges hit market, this may change!

So... when will we be able to order them?

I figure the grill one may be too big but the fender may work just fine!

A factory cut down short bed :metal:

Re: Centennial...67
 

Re: Centennial...67
 

Hell I'll take it and I'd like to have a 2018 too so I could park them side by side. They would look good together.

Re: Centennial...67
 

amen Andy

Re: Centennial...67
 

love the 67...glad they chose that year. Great looking truck

Re: Centennial...67
 

This right here!!

Re: Centennial...67
 

I would of used a 50th truck, but I guess they wanted an iconic truck and IMHO the 67 C-10 short bed is it (I would of had a small back window though)

Re: Centennial...67
 

Obviously a very cool factory-made hot rod. I'm glad they do this. We all have different tastes - and nobody asked me, but I'D ;) have done an absolutely bone stock resto and only added the new emblems. :)
And I've have chosen a much less often chosen truck year, a 72.... ;)

Re: Centennial...67
 

Are you saying the 67/68 grille badge is available? I haven't seen that info anywhere, that would be awesome, do you have a P/N for it?

GM did have the 2016+ badges available but SO MANY PEOPLE bought them at once GM cancelled the orders and supposedly you can only get them now with the VIN of a 100th anniversary truck. They are supposed to be offered as a GM accessory soon though.

What sucks is that GM made the bowtie smaller when they changed the grille for the 2016, so they won't fit my 2015 :( Apparently the 2016 HD bowtie is the same size, but who knows if they'll do an HD version.

Re: Centennial...67
 

Re: Centennial...67
 

Yeah, those are just for the "new" 2016+ trucks. I haven't seen anything for the 1967/68 yet :(

Re: Centennial...67
 

ordered a front badge-thanks for the link

Re: Centennial...67
 

God, I love that color...
