The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network - View Single Post - some observations about the 67-72 community

It takes time for a classic to gain the lasting demand that the 67-72 Chevy/GMC trucks have come to be aquainted with. I feel todays truck is trying to accomidate all. Well this can be a successful marketing strategy today it can effect what will be a classic tomorrow.

A point to be considered is that a classic isn't created it is owed mostly to style, design and consumer acceptance not only when the vehicle was new but long afterwards. This places consumer demand on a product that the manufactorer no longer provides a product for. The 67-72 trucks have succeeded where many others will fail.
