The Year Is: 1964

The year is 1964. You've just finished paying off your fines at the court house because the State Patrol doesn't like your unconventional methods of transporting items.

You still need to haul your stuff around and your station wagon isn't cutting it. You decide a pickup is the answer. The only question is, which one?

Jeep Willys

Jeep Gladiator

Jeep FC 170

Jeep FC 150

International Harvester C-Series

GMC C/K

Ford F-Series

Ford Econoline

Dodge Power Wagon

Dodge D/W Series

Chevrolet El Camino

Chevrolet Corvair Rampside

Chevrolet C/K Series

Studebaker Champ

Ford Ranchero

Got a year and type of vehicle you'd like to see featured? Shoot me a PM.

I like them all, but we all know where my heart is on this one.

I'm going to have to drive the Miata to Philly to personally kick your butt for falling for the Dodge power wagon, even if it is totally out of this world awesome.

But I liked the Camino best, followed by the Chevy and Ford full size.

There are two of us who like the camino best....

Guess I'd go with that GMC...the torque of the 305 V6 is the clincher for me.

The Jeep Gladiator would be way cool but the Kaiser OHC six had some issues.

I could handle the Dodge power wagon as a toy, but for real world use the Camino

While I love the El Camino, I would love to have the Chevrolet Corvair Rampside

Such variety to choose from back then, too bad we don't have that today.

I don't even pay attention to modern pickups anymore...they kind of gross me out.

Sadly this is due to the politicians and lawyers. Blame all those people who are not willing to take accountability for their own actions. Lawyers have so many people in the "It is not my fault" that it has driven variety away.

Have to go with the FC since I own one. Always wanted a Power Wagon though.
