60-66 Dealership Pics - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

sodly · 02-10-2015, 11:15 PM

I was hoping to start a thread of period photos of GM pickup dealerships showing new 60-66 trucks on display. I'll start with this one. Check out the Carryall lurking on the right side of the building. Sorry, it's a little hard to see in this reduced size photo.

sodly · 02-10-2015, 11:25 PM

Here's another one that fits the theme.

my dad worked here, in the old bldg on jackson st, in the 50's-60's. truck pics on pg 60. my dad is on pg 59 (on the phone).

i would go to work with him sometimes on thursday nights, when he worked the night shift, and stock parts. i was probably 8-10yo at the time

sodly · 02-12-2015, 11:32 PM

Interesting side-track, guys, but let's just stick to vintage dealership photographs in this thread, please!

that's a cool book! I wasn't able to save the pic because it was a pdf file, but I did find a copy of the book online, so when I get it I will post up the pic!

*** here is another cool pic-

Revoh has a blog. On his sight he has a bunch of photo's of dealerships.

factorystock · 02-13-2015, 09:52 PM

A 3/4 ton GMC gets a prime spot on the lot.

sodly · 02-14-2015, 11:30 PM

I was hoping you'd chime in here, factorystock! You've always got something good. Thanks!

oem4me · 02-15-2015, 01:00 AM

I grew up just a couple miles from this GMC dealer. Never gave it any thought that it wouldn't be there forever. Last time I went by there it was gone, but it has been awhile, so I guess it could've folded years ago. ?

What was the 'New Engine' for 63?

**Captainfab** · 03-22-2015, 01:56 AM

The only new truck engine that I can think of for '63 was the 292 I6. Maybe the 409 was newly available in the medium duty trucks in '63?

Weird, the truck in the center of the picture has a topper on it that looks very similar to the one that I have. Would love to see more like that. Hijack over. Sorry

the 230 and the 292. It replaced the 235 except for the 4wd trucks which still used them.
