GM built the prototype, but unfortunately, it never made it into production. Below is the pic GM prototype, and a photoshop of an '67 "SS" model I have tossed around using the grill similiar to prototype truck. I personally wouldn't go with stripes on a truck, but that's just me.

That would have been so badass!! Any idea what they were planning to run in it?

Re: SS Pickup

Re: SS Pickup

I like the SS on the 69-70 grill better than the Camaro SS look a like, but that's just me.

Round here, a black truck would absolutely have AC if it were to be street driven.

Now THAT is the look I was after, but the idea is still just that. An idea.
I wonder though, where I could find a grill like that?

I have never heard of, or seen an SS truck, but it is a good looking rig. I do like the stripes, but not sure if I would run them on my truck.

The price tag for that truck is a little hard to swallow. (GULP) I am sure that it is an excellent truck for the buyer who is looking for that particular setup.

Re: SS Pickup

This was sort of my idea of an SS inspired truck
