There is one rule when talking about Chevy trucks and their owners, never come between the two! Dedicated Chevy lovers will not take kindly to any derogatory statements about their trucks. When Chevy claimed the heartbeat of America as their slogan, they nailed it. Old Chevy trucks have and will continue to retain great resell value and a loyal following.

1967-72

In 1967 Chevy decided to give their popular trucks a new modern look. They also wanted to market the truck as an all around everyday vehicle instead of just a work truck. For these years, the body style remained much the same with slight variances and added trim packages. Below we will discuss some of the differences between years.

1967

1967 Chevy C-10

The '67 marked a new day in Chevy trucks, new body style and comfort options like coil springs instead of leaf led to ads that read "A Chevy truck is made to be woman handled." The 1967 C/K truck series standard drive train came with a three-speed transmission and the choice of two engine sizes: the 250 straight 6 and 283 V-8.  Optional transmissions included a 4-speed manual, Powerglide and Turbo-Hydromatic. Half ton trucks have a six hole bolt pattern while ¾ ton and 1 ton are eight hole.

1968

1968 celebrated 50 years of truck making for Chevrolet, this is the year the 283 cid was replaced by the 307 cid and the first offering of the 396 cid V-8 took place. Little changed in the body style with the exception of side marker reflectors on all fenders and the loss of the small rear window cab. GMC also revised their grille this year taking away the embossing on the horizontal crossbar.

1969

1969 Chevy C-10 Cheyenne

1969 was the beginning of the ever-popular 350-cid V-8 engine, with the new engine came a revised hood. It is important to note here that the hoods from 69- 72 cannot be interchanged on the earlier models without changing the fenders as well. The 67-68 hood had less of a slope than the later models. One of the most notable interior changes was the switch from a hand-operated emergency brake to a foot pedal.

The K-5 blazer and the GMC Jimmy also made their first appearances this year.

1970

With the exception of a slight change in the appearance of the grille very little else changed from '69-'70. In fact, it is really hard to tell the two years apart, the highlighting on the grille breaks the sections into six parts.

1971

More changes would occur this year though they were mainly aimed at trim packages. In '71, you would have the option of the Chevy Cheyenne or GMC Sierra, these packages included more padding, and insulation on the interior, carpet, chrome as well as the first factory installed AM/FM radios. In the area of performance all light duty trucks were now offered with front disc brakes instead of drum, this increased stopping ability and reduced brake fade. While on the subject of wheels you may want to note that while most half ton models to this point used six hole lug bolt pattern in '71 the two wheel drive models switched to the more commonly used five hole lug pattern.

1972

1971 Chevy Stepside

Once again we find a year with little change, I guess when you have found perfection why mess with it? Anyway, on this year the only notable difference was the removal of the rear view mirror from the top of the cab to a glued on mirror on the windshield. The trim packages also offered wood grain inserts on the Cheyenne and Sierra options.

While there are a wide variety of options out there, from a trip to the junkyard to a reliable online retailer, some are better than others.  Specialty websites will have the right used Chevy truck parts for your vehicle, and they'll be in great shape, too.  That's something you can't say about junk parts.

My experience has showed me, that the best source for old truck parts is on eBay. Although I do still purchased parts from online retailers, my search will always start with eBay first. I consistently find better deals on the same parts. When it comes to used parts, the selection on eBay is also much more then the local junkyard. It's worth the effort to go through my  website to see if you can locate the part you are looking for.

For more information on how this site works, and the benefits please see my About Old Trucks For Sale Section

OldTrucksForSale.net organizes the thousands of options into easy to understand and navigate categories.  Some sites simply jumble their parts together, making it hard to find the part you need, or know if it'll work in your truck.  Easy navigation is something that doesn't get the attention it deserves. This is constantly being upgraded and improved as time permits. I will be providing a database of  used and new Chevy truck parts for vehicles made as long ago as the turn of the last century!

That kind of variety means that even if you're looking for a part that goes with an obscure model, you'll be able to find it.  A good selection could be the difference between having an older truck that takes up space and getting it running again.

Your old truck can even be an investment.  If you keep an older model in good condition, there's a good chance its value will appreciate.  The workhorses of yesterday have become today's collectibles.

If you're interested in buying used Chevy truck parts, or even an entire truck, I am developing this website to help.  I am working on a search engine that will filter the parts by zip or postal code.  That means it's possible to sort out the trucks and parts nearest to you, and find out what's available in your area.

If you've been buying used Chevy truck parts from the junkyard, or through the newspaper, now's the time to change how you work.  Take advantage of the technology the Internet offers to streamline your search and make sure you get reliable parts at a lower price.
