Built Chevy Tough! Those were the days. My '53 Chevy 3100 1/2 is still running strong with it's original 216 stove bolt 6, 3 on the tree and 4.11 rearend. It has never failed me in all the years I've owned. My Great Uncle bought in new here in Santa Ana, Ca.

Very impressive for a 6 cylinder, that looked like real tough terrain, that is when trucks were used for work, remember the Dodge powerwagon??

Back when trucks were American made. I drive a 66 as my DD and it is great. Nice not some something made of tin and plastic. Thanks for the video.

Yeah, with a whole lot of plastic hanging off of it several inches from the ground, and thinner gauge sheet metal. Not to mention IFS and several hundred pounds worth of AC, airbags, stereos and other luxury junk. Hardly makes sense to make trucks tough any more, since 95% of them never get taken off the pavement and 85% of them are never actually used to haul more than a couple bags of groceries (maybe two or three times year they'll pull a fishing boat or camper). But, gotta have that image.

There are 3 Fords and a Chevy in my driveway, and none of them have an alternator that is made in the USA, all of them are made in Japan now. Those old truck were 100% American made, you are right!

These days Titans and Tundras are built in the US with at least as many US built components as any F-150 or Chevy (which are built largely of parts made in Mexico and other countries). There is no entirely "US made" cars any more, and most "imports" are bolted together here, just like "American" cars (many of which are from Canada and Mexico).

You mean when the public didn't have much choice in terms of what to buy, except the mediocre products spewed out by American factories? LOL, yes those gladly were the days. Now we get to pick mediocre profit making metal buckets with computers inside for inflated prices made in Mexico and Korea. Nothing's changed.
