1963 Chevrolet or GMC One-Ton Panel Truck FYI, One-Ton Panel trucks were C-30's, and the 1966's were the last one tons. -- Last edit: 2007-04-07 22:37:58 |

Indeed. Armbruster & Co made these things and I believe they were also responsible for the one seen here. |

Armbruster & Co. and companies like that only made them out of existing C-10 panel trucks, which had regular wheelbases. C-30 Panel Trucks came right from the factories as heavier, extended 10.5 foot models. -- Last edit: 2009-06-07 18:20:41 |

The wraparound windshield (1960-63) and the "sharp end" hood (1962-66) give us the 1962-63 model years range. If a Chevrolet truck, the "1-Ton" complement wouldn't be necessary, as C-30 models have all a "1-ton" payload (a little more, in fact). But if I'm not mistaken, this panel has the "V" GMC emblem at the end of the hood. It's then more likely a GMC 2500 model, and as it has the 133" (3.38 m) wheelbase, it is identified as a 2503 model in the GMC internal codes. Did Armbruster & Co. also work with GMC panels? ⇒ 1962 GMC 2500 Panel [2503] (Armbruster & Co.?) |

Without 1-Ton would in fact sound better, as 25xx means 1-ton payload in GMC "language" -- Last edit: 2014-12-08 17:44:48 |
