1967-1968 GMC Grille & Bumper UpgradesI've noticed a peculiar trait that GMC trucks from the classic years possess. It seems like they either left the factory as plain as a pair of orthopedic shoes, or they came dressed to the nines with every factory option imaginable-even more than Chevrolet made available. In the case of my '68 GMC 1500, she's just about as plain as they come except for a few extras that make it more of a heavy-duty truck. Under the hood, instead of the base-model 230-inch six-cylinder, there is a 307-inch V-8, and in place of a three-speed column-shift transmission, there is a compound four-speed. In the looks department, with a painted grille and front bumper on my Jimmy, using an orthopedic shoe for a hood ornament might add a little pizzazz, but it wouldn't be a very honorable way to reward the old girl for its many years of dependable service. In my eyes, the only way befitting the truck is chrome, and a lot of it.
