I'd love a Beau James or a Gentlemen Jim. What was the Special Edition Chevy did back then?

My server has been up and down all afternoon. It's in Montana and we're working on it. Keep trying though.

GM decided to market most of it's special edition trucks as GMCs rather than Chevrolets. The only ones that comes to mind are the Spirit of 76 trucks. Chevrolet also had some official Indy trucks (78 and 86 plus others) but I don't think they marketed replica trucks to be sold like GMC did in 74, 75, 76, 77, 80 etc.

i remember my uncle having a gentleman jim,had bucket seats and all.its cool remembering all this stuff

Yeah the spirit of 76 that was one, and yeah i knew they marketed the special editions to GMC, probably since Chevies sold more that GMC to start with. I wanna say there was another one right in that time, i guess i gotta check www.73-87.com since whats his face has a bunch o stuff on em.
