Good afternoon from Cape Cod 🦈 I'm going on 60 and I've only seen one long horn. Thanks for explaining the history of the truck for us. I'm glad I came across your channel I absolutely love the content 👍✌️🇺🇲
I have a 1971 Longhorn with the big block 400; 400 turbo tranny and one-ton rear end. My grandfather bought it off the showroom floor. It is beat up, but my intent is to restore it and add a little extra to it.
I flipped one about 30 years ago, wish I could have kept it. Awesome truck with lots of nice options - A/C, tilt, tach, cargo light, nice interior and trim package. Yours is a beauty!
Yeah was familiar with these back in 67-72. Era and looked for them. Few and far between in dealers but mechanic had one for his camper bought new and kept inside truck garage since day one..truck auto and had air cst package..traded in on new. 74. Dually
Love the Longhorn. I have a 71 that my dad bought new. I remember riding home from the dealer in it! I'd love to share a picture of it with you but youtube doesn't have that option. Great video's.
Hey Gold City Trucks! Love what you do bro! Keep up the good work, and looking forward to more vids!Loving the fitment of wheels what size of rubbers you run? Also curious if you have ever come across a year correct box cap vintage retro style? I have a 71 c20 deluxe longhorn original 402bb have had it for 20 some years. I wonder if any new trucks now will last as long as these gems have? “Keep the dream alive!” 👍 Hope to hear back from you.
@@KDN258I have one. I would sell it. But not cheap. It’s in great shape. I would want 1000 dollars for it. You can see it on my truck in of the clips in this video
Cool videos brother. What part of Washington are you from? I have a 1968 50th anniversary c20. I am the second owner. Its been my favorite truck ive ever owned. 67-72s are just built so much better than the later body style. Subscribed!
These longhorns were 8.5 beds.. they did also make a similar truck to it that was a a stepside 9 foot bed that was built on the same style one ton chassis as a longhorn .. those didn’t get a cool name or marketing plan.. just a extra long and heavy duty stepside!
A garage mech had a 69. White longhorn with camper....since new kept in garage huge with ca,per off and lesss than 60k. Miles on it when he tradd in on a 74. Dually..thar 69. Was pridtine white with a black interior...impressive😅😅
I have just come across a 1970 longhorn. Been sitting for 30 years. 454, no interior, some rust in the doors and kick panel. Guy hasn't advertised but told me 5k. Its 3 hrs away. Worth it? Not sure what it is truly worth.
Gmc records were kept seperate from that of Chevrolet. Gmc records were lost in a office fire. The only production numbers known for gmc of these years are gmc that were sold in Canada.
@GoldCityTrucks Cool thank you for that answer. I still have my 71 K10 6 foot stepside with a 350 engine Turbo 350 and 205 after 30 years. Did it all over a long time ago. Love the videos and I'm subscribed. Take care...
why don't you mention they were 133" inch wheelbase as apposed to the127" of the regular 8' foot box and they came as C20 and C30 and no four wheel drives.
I once had a Longhorn Camper Special. Check my assumptions: Options were: 8'-6" bed, 9' bed, 10' bed. Also a dually switchover kit including fender flares. Can anybody verify these options?
Just 8.5 foot bed longhorns. Also available were 9 foot stepside beds. No 10 foot fleet or stepside. And no factory dually trucks with a stepside or fleet side bed until 1973.
I died laughing watching the front end of the tow truck bobbing up and down 😂
Hell yes.
68 gold/white is beautiful.
Gotta love Longhorns

Always have dug those Longhorns
Garage had a 69 longhorn white kept in truck garage sold in 73. For a new one
Thanks for the explanation. I remember looking at one in the dealers showroom.
One lucky dude!! I can't find anything cheap enough to buy. Everyone wants an arm and leg for them.
I pay big money for them a lot of times too! Gotta pay to play nowadays.

@@JWood454yes .. I have a few kicking around and parts for sale as well
Wasn't these 9ft beds ?we've had a 67,68,69 not long horn with steel beds I've heard farmers liked the long bed step sides to.

What all did the general add to custom capers in c20 flavor?
So what was the one ton called that came with a stepside bed?
Was the aux (2nd) battery standard on the Longhorn?
No, still optional equipment
how many of the 30,000 were GMC ??? I have a '69 with a small block and a/c. I have always wanted to convert mine to 4 x 4
Gmc records were kept seperate from that of Chevrolet. Gmc records were lost in a office fire. The only production numbers known for gmc of these years are gmc that were sold in Canada.
Did all longhorns come with tilt wheel?
No , standalone option.
I want to do this for a living 😭
If I remember right Longhorns were only available in 2wd?
Yes! You are correct.. I forgot to state that in the video. No 4wheel drive factory longhorns.

All were fleetsides, in below comment
Did they make it in 4x4
why don't you mention they were 133" inch wheelbase as apposed to the127" of the regular 8' foot box and they came as C20 and C30 and no four wheel drives.
I also have a C60 for sale complete with transmission and big block chevy for sale
So they made longhorns from 67 through 72?
No, didn’t start till 68. No 67 longhorns.

No, no 4x4 longhorns that were assembly line factory
For cats sakes! Get some shocks on the front of your towing vehicle! Absolute idiocy to drive a truck like that.
That Driveway is super bumpy, truck is fine and has new Monroe shocks. You’ll be alright!!
