The first Chevrolet pickup truck appeared in 1924, though in-house designs did not appear until 1930. C indicated two-wheel drive and K indicated four-wheel drive. The aging C/K light-duty pickup truck was replaced with the Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra in 1999 in the US; the Chevrolet Silverado HD and GMC Sierra HD heavy-duty pickup trucks followed in 2001. A new, more modern look came in 1967, along with a new nickname: Action Line. It was with this revision of the C/K truck that General Motors began to add comfort and convenience items to a vehicle line that had previously been for work purposes alone. The majority of 10 and 20 series Chevrolet trucks from 1967 to 1972 were built with a coil spring trailing arm rear suspension, which greatly improved the ride over traditional leaf springs. However, the leaf spring rear suspension was still available on those trucks, and standard on 30 series trucks. GMC models came standard with leaf springs with coils springs optional; all four-wheel drive models (Chevrolet and GMC) had leaf springs on both axles. This was the only year of the small rear window; it was replaced with larger rear glass in 1968. The standard drivetrain came with a three speed manual transmission and one of two engines; the 250 in straight six or the 283 cu in (4.6 L) V8. The optional transmissions were the four speed manual, the Powerglide and the Turbo-Hydramatic 350 and 400. The 292 six and the 327 in V8 were the optional engines. The 1/2 ton trucks came with a 6 x 5.5 bolt pattern, the 3/4 and 1 ton trucks came with an 8 x 6.5 bolt pattern. In 1968, the 283 cu in (4.6 L) V8 was replaced with a 307 cu in (5.0 L) and a 310 hp (231 kW), 396 cu in (6.5 L) V8 was offered for the first time. The most visible change in differentiating a 1968 from a 1967 was the addition of side-marker reflectors on all fenders. Also, the small rear window cab was no longer available. The GMC grille was revised, with the letters GMC no longer embossed in the horizontal crossbar. Another addition was the Custom Comfort and Convenience interior package that fell between the Standard cab and CST cab options. In 1968, Chevrolet celebrated 50 years of truck manufacturing, and to commemorate, they released a 50th Anniversary package, which featured an exclusive white-gold-white paint scheme. Also in 1968, the Longhorn model debuted on 3/4 ton trucks. Featuring a 133 wheelbase identical to the one ton vehicles, it added an extra 6 to the bed. Longhorns, interestingly, were 2wd only; no factory Longhorn 4x4 was built. The 1970 Chevy C10 is a classic pickup truck that is highly regarded by automotive enthusiasts and collectors. It was part of Chevrolets C/K series of trucks, which were produced from 1960 to 1998. The C in C10 stands for two-wheel drive.
