WOW ...Those two trucks bring back memories.In 1970 at age 19 I came close to buying a new chevy p.u.almost like that one,deep red /two tone white,3 speed,not quite as trimmed,for $3,600 but backed out as I did not have enough $$$$$Woulld have been a great chick magnet.But I bought a used black 1959 chevy just loike pictured,for $ 500.Plain jane,not even a heater.It wa an old farmers truck.I drove it to college and in summers to haul my vegetables to the market.When I went to settle up the deal my father said "Get what you want,ande I will get you a check".To late I was already committed on the 59.My father would have bought me the new one.I still regret my mistake.Forty two years ago $3600 was a lot of money to a college student/part time vegetabble farmer.Can anybody guess what that truck would cost today? I guess $28000
