Possible 50th anv. located in S. Missouri - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

firedog · 03-25-2002, 12:12 AM

Was visiting my grandparents in Bixby, MO(dont ask its not close to anything) and took a look at the neighbors truck sitting behind his house and it is white over gold over white with a 68 front end. Grandpa says its been updated with disk brakes and fresh crate motor but has been sitting there for a couple of years since I remember about a year ago talking to him about it before i got my truck. It was repainted i was told but back to original color? He wasnt home and i didnt want to go walking thru the yard so one day im going to have to make another 1 1/2 hr trip to go check it out.

I found a 50th this weekend. Its near Bowdle on somebody's farm inside a barn. They are gone for the winter and the door was open, so inviting. It is a 50th. Gold and white with parchment interior. White seat with gold inserts. 327 I believe. NO RUST anywhere not even the passenger fender. Some body damage. They still drive it though.
