Default 1960 GMC Factory Literature in glove Box

Hello, I am trying to pool together a copy of each piece of literature that would have come with the new 1960 GMC gas powered trucks. If you have a copy of something that is not already here, please upload a copy of the cover. We should be able to build a complete list of all the "Original Paper" that these trucks left the dealership with. I will start the ball rolling with a copy of the covers of the 1960 GMC Operator Guide, 1960 Gasoline Engines Owner Protection Policy, 1960 GMC Gasoline Models Owner Guide and 1960 GMC Drivers Directory. These are all of the pieces of literature that I know of that were included with each new truck. If you know of others, please share them here .Thanks, GM

This is the Sams Photofacts book that has the schematic and service information pertaining to the 1960 GMC AM Radio. Starting on page 49,it has 5 full pages of information. The UMS Bulletin has 6 pages of information. Between the two, you can know all there is to know about the 1960 GMC AM Radio.

Here is the 1960 GMC Flat Rate Manual. And the Motors Truck Repair Manual,13th Edition, released in 1960. It has a ton of information on the motors and trannies.

What self respecting 1960 GMC truck would be caught without a 1960 Georgia Map, a 1960 GMC Matchbook and a 1960 GMC Lighter by Zippo?

Hey Foley, Thanks for the nice words. I have a hard copy of all the above, except for one. The first posting includes a cover of the 1960 GMC Owner Protection Policy. I believe that is the last piece of literature that came with my truck when new that I do not have. Please find me a copy, haha.

Amazing collection Greg! On that last accessories page where it has the price list there is "flares, flags, fuses and sets of 3 reflector type? I have a set of reflector type from 55-59 GMC's. Wonder if the "Miro Flares" I have were the same in 1960?

The front of that truck on the dealer brochure from Bloomington, IL is the same yellow/white body color of the '60 from my childhood except white bumpers and grill.

i forgot to add about the Georgia road map--- my folks bought the '60 in Cheyenne, WY, and the first thing they did after we got established in Rapid City, SD was to head to Georgia to see Dad's family that summer--I'm babbling,---sorry!

Thanks for the walk back in to time, Greg!
