Re: Where was your truck born??
Mine was 'born' in Fremont, and was sold at a Chevrolet dealership in a small town about 50 miles away from here. I think it's been in my area it's whole life. (Picture is of my truck's 'good side'...The other side...Not so good!

Re: Where was your truck born??
My 68 Stepper was "born" in Atlanta, Ga. Sold new at a Chevy dealership in Cedartown, Ga. my grandfather. Second owner was one of my uncles. Third owner was one of my cousins. Fourth owner and being "reborn" by me. I don't recall this truck ever being more than at most 150 miles from original purchase place and don't recall this truck ever leaving the state.

Re: Where was your truck born??
My '67 K/10 Suburban, "Whitefang" was produced in Fremont, Calif.
[ BBC 454/TH350/NP205/--rear cannibalized for '71 GMC. Ran hard from '93 to '98 and put away wet after small engine fire. Future project.] '68 C/10 Stepside "Orange Sunshine". Fremont's finest. [L6 292/SM465/3.73 Eaton posi. Daily driver since 1973, just survived broken exh valve spring on # 4 Cyl. Running good again.] '71 K/1500 GMC Jimmy 4x4, "Blue Thunder." Made in St Louis, MO. [SBC 350/SM465/NP205/12-Bolt Corp 3.73, Auburn Posi, Moser axles -- off '67 K/10. Work truck, fun truck, currently at tire shop waiting on new 33x12.50R15 replacement under warranty].  '72 K/5 Blazer tub, "Phantom of the Junkyard.'' Flint, Mich. product. No motor or trans, rear is 3.08, no idea what ratio in front D44. Future project w/ L6 292/SM465/T221. I have a doghouse of '70 and '72 sheetmetal to go on it. No top. Like 1/2 top "Trazer'' or ragtop ideas. Currently unfunded project. And I was _born_ in Tarrytown, NY.

Re: Where was your truck born??
Both are California natives, Fremont being their place of birth. Kinda funny to think that after 40+ yrs, they really have gone nowhere!
