The text is just barely legible in this photo, but it lists bucket seats as part of the Super Custom package. The panoramic window, however, is listed as an optional feature.

Very nice! Your truck is only 201 units after my very similar Fremont built 2500 according to the VIN. Probably built within a day or two.

That's a rare 1967 Canadian GMC Light Duty brochure, but the U.S. brochure says the same thing. My late 1967 GMC data book lists the 'Buddy Buckets' as an independant option with a lower price when ordered with Super Custom trim, Custom bench seat standard. May have been a mid-year change.

Great truck! You deserve it, congratulations! Of course I love the color.
I have 8 lug split rims left over from my 72 3/4 ton you can have if that's what you're looking for but the shipping would be insane.

yeah it would and yeah id love to hav them but im kinda perplexed on something.. the prev owner had 10" clip style dog dishes.. did yours hold those too?

**RenoKeene** · 06-16-2023, 04:31 PM

Not sure about the caps. Here is the SPID and a pic of the wheels.

**michael bustamante** · 06-16-2023, 04:34 PM

Dang! Those take a nub style hubcap... Dangit...theres no way my caps would go on those.. But think you for the offer!!

**RenoKeene** · 06-16-2023, 09:30 PM

Sorry I couldn't help, your truck is fantastic. You might be better off with a later year steelie as these split rims are fairly dangerous to work on.

**Ironangel** · 06-17-2023, 02:35 AM

Nice truck but if you want me to eat my heart out post the price you paid for that thing? I paid $500 for my first 72 in 2010 and drove that baby home! Today I have more than $25K wrapped up in that truck and wouldn't trade her for the world! Jus Sayin

**BIG ORANGE** · 06-17-2023, 09:41 AM

You did good brother, take good care of it.....👍

dansweekendtruck · 06-17-2023, 11:06 PM

Nice truck! And nice job getting your kid to wash it, even for a moment.

Be careful what you wish for, though. Now my 18-year-old daughter loves my truck, and I'm in trouble for planning to sell it.

If they are there it came with buckets. Does it still have the ram style power steering? If so how does it work?

So ... I pulled the tank blanket to get access to the fuel sender to see how bad the tank varnish is ... Peee-yew... And I found the bracket still attached.. there's even the strap where they cut it to put the bench in... My seat is a 67 bench though.. 1 year only adjustment knob and the hinges are not covered and as you can see....foldable
And, look what I found behind the carpet!

Is that jack hydraulic? Is it a gm accessory? And was it in the stock holder that gm has bu the cab corner?

chewychevy67 · 06-27-2023, 11:58 PM

I just got home and pulled out my gmc accessory book and it looks like there was a hydraulic accessory jack. We need more pictures of that jack. Does it have gm stamped on it anywhere?

**michael bustamante** · 06-28-2023, 11:36 AM

hmmmm... now that really peaked the interest. il check it out when i get home. its pretty big.. maybe a 5.5 ton?
