My grandad bought a new '67 Chevy short bed with a 350 in it, and a "glide" (Powerglide automatic tranny). As I recall the engine made about 250 hp. It was bright "highway" yellow. We opined that the bright yellow saved grandad's hide on more than one occasion, as his driving had become increasingly careless. He would pull out into the highway in front of oncoming vehicles. They'd see that bright yellow and hit the brakes in time.

I used to drive it to the drag strip in Jackson, SC and race it. That truck would go across a bottom plowed field, amazing for a two-wheel drive truck with street tires.

May God bless America and those who defend her.
