Re: Time to Vote for TOTM
There's a couple in there that make for a difficult decision. For me, the tie-breaker is that 60-66's GMC (#10) is an 18,000 mile original survivor.
I just gotta give some extra points for that. |

Re: Time to Vote for TOTM
How am I supposed to choose between all those awesome 60-66's? I'd feel like I'm ripping off the ones I didn't vote for because their all extremely nice!

Re: Time to Vote for TOTM
Not trying to start anything, but do you guys only vote for 60-66's? I only ask because I thought we admire all Chevies and this contest is suppose to be fun, I mostly own 67-72' but I voted for the 65' this month because I thought it was drop dead gorgeous truck, I guess to me it looks like it kinda divides us truck people into different groups, again guys I don't mean to offend anyone and maybe I'm just reading to much into this.

Re: Time to Vote for TOTM
No I think you are right on Rene. I vote for what catches my eye and sometimes its not a 67-72, but don't tell anyone Sometimes people are only fixed on their era that they miss out on some really cool trucks

Re: Time to Vote for TOTM
I vote for any year, not just 60-66's. Spending most of my time in the 60-66 section and watching the build threads does make it easy to vote for a truck that you watch go together, vs a "strangers" truck from another section that you're not as familiar with. It's a tough decision for sure.

Re: Time to Vote for TOTM
I agree with shawno72. Except in my case it is not always a 60-66. I pretty much like all old pickups that look similar to what they did when they were born.

I personally vote for what inspires me, which could be anything. However, I must admit that the 60-66 era seems to "float my boat" a little more than the others so I tend to vote there. To be exclusive from the get-go is to be narrow minded and probably a good indicator that one is being too serious. |

Re: Time to Vote for TOTM
I've owned every post 1955 GM truck body style. I like them all. I might lean a little towards the 60-66 but I'll give credit where credits due.
