Re: Historical/ This I know
[QUOTE=aerotruk63;3389738]Would it be possible to start a Historical/ This I know section.
Example: Historical:
The 60-66 Chevrolet/GMC were designed by John Delorean based on Airplane Design. Thus the nickname Aerotrucks.
Hey, Aerotruck. Not to change the subject but you touched on a topic I've been interested in. That is, who designed the 60-66 trucks? Where did you discover that John Delorean headed the design team? I would love to learn more about this. It would be so cool to see the design process and rejected drawings. I've always wondered why nobody has ever written a "behind the scenes" book about designing these trucks. They made so many of them and they were so popular for so long you'd think there would be a market for such a book. For some strange reason, though, in-depth books on trucks (esp. pickups) are few and far between.
