    As you know, ive been a big fan of CTR since way back in the chicken farm days. I started watching these videos because i myself thru the yrs have rescued about every old truck i could get my hands on. Sorry to say most have been scraped but i still enjoy the hunt and thrill i still get from landing some old car or truck. I think some people try thier damnedest to criticize or condem anyone for anything they dont agree with. So i would just like to say LETS ALL LIVE AND LET LIVE, TRY TO BE KIND TO ONE ANOTHER. and HAVING LOVE FOR THE LORD IS A GOOD THING.

    I'm going to have to watch this again. Lots of good information!!! Yes I totally enjoyed it!!! I have a 57 1 ton with the 9 foot bed. 6 cyl and 4 speed. I bought it in 1972 and used it to move mobile homes and made lots of money with it. In 77 I took off the 9ft bed and built a welding bed on it and used it to haul my 200 amp Lincoln welding machine and related tools. I love that old truck!!!!

    When you presented the correct placements of the side emblems for the 1957 chevy, in which direction they should face, I got nervous. I said to myself let me check the pictures of my truck thats on my phone.
    Because right now I am out of town! And sure enough my emblems are on backwards Lol
    The shop that installed them did it over 5 years ago! I guess no one is the wiser. I have never been corrected until today Lol. Thankyou for the lesson. I'm not going to correct it, but if someone does correct me, I will admit fault, then thank him/ her, then tell them, I did it on purpose, because I like the look! Lol!! ; ) Nice channel!! and " Good Day To You Sir"

  • @shadetreejoe3986
    @shadetreejoe3986 3 года назад +1

    Rick, just one other difference to note for the 1957 Chevrolet trucks was the front fenders. The front grille, being one-year only, used different mounting holes in the front fenders for the grille. I don't know where the different mounting holes were located, but every time I've seen it noted, the 1957 grille won't fit the 1955-1956 front fenders. As to bed lengths, the short bed was 72", the next bigger bed was 89". The long bed was 97" and you could carry full sheets of plywood with the tailgate closed. Of course, the big daddy was the Longhorn 9' bed. I've got a 1957 3200 without the spare tire option, small window cab, that I built into my own modernized version of the Napco, using a 1994 Dodge Ram 1500 4wd chassis. Of course, the fender emblems throw folks off too, since they came from a 1959 Apache 3100, but they came with the truck, and I honestly like the look. Thanks for all the info Rick. I learned a few new things too.

Yeah, we all know your bias towards the GMCs lol. If only the dashes wear reversed Id be right there with ya. The "pie" shaped speedometer of the Chevys puts them above just about any other truck on the planet. Ever. In my option.

    Ah haaaa.. The differences between 55, 56, 57, 58 & 59!!!Very interesting.

From your comments at the beginning of the video, I assume you’ve received quite a lot of nasty comments. I for one appreciate your calm and benign bearing and your kind words regarding animals. I hope you get as much joy out 0f making your videos, as I and surely many other get from watching them. Keep ‘em coming. By the way, I’m watching and subscribed from Germany.

    @tomcasale6070 3 года назад +2

    Another tidbit about 55-57s: in addition to the location difference (above/below the fender line) between the 55 and 56 front fender emblems is the background color behind the 'Chevrolet' name. In 55 the background was white, vs black for 56. Also the 57 front fender is one-year-only as there is unique flat spot and hole at the front where the grill mounts to the fenders so it can accept the 57-only grille.

      They have actually become very popular. I didn't care much for the 4-headlight trucks when I was Younger, but I really like them now.

    A VERY informative video. Now I know the differences between, say, a 55 and a 56 just by the fender emblems. By The Way, NAPCO was located in Indianapolis, IN where I live. Keep up the great videos, Rick.

    Home Plant was GM Truck and Bus Pontiac Michigan, South Blvd. on South side of Pontiac. In 1988 I worked in that plant just short of 3 months, On the front clip: because of the closing of Pontiac Motor Plant on the North side of Pontiac MI.

    • @ClassicTruckRescue

      Good point. Also, the vin number on all 1955-59 Chevy trucks contains a letter that indicates which plant it was assembled in. (A-Atlanta GA, B-Baltimore MD, F-Flint MI, J-Janesville WI, K-Kansas City MO, L-Los Angeles CA, N-Norwood OH, O-Oakland CA, S-St. Louis MO, T-Tarrytown NY)

      Both Pontiac Motor Division and GMC Truck and Bus Plants are gone now. I worked For Pontiac Motor Division for 25 years then when the plant closed I went to Saturn In Spring Hill TN. Retired in 1997 with 32 years working for GM. First year I worked in the Foundry in the core room cleaning cores. Then transferred to finial finish plant and loaded cars on tri-level rail cars for the next 6 years, we had 4 tri-levels on track 18 and, 2 tri-levels on track 19. We loaded 12 tri-levels in 8 hours and 18 tri-levels in 11.5 hours. I got tired of the Ice and snow dripping on me while tying them down in the winter and got a transfer back inside to paint repair. Tri-levels are all covered now with sheet metal and are enclosed.
