After a little searching, I found this:
https://6066gmcclub.com/showthread.php?t=2
It helped to refresh my memory. I now recall that the information site
http://6066gmcguy.com/ came first, earlier in 1999 I think. I probably found it while searching the internet for V6 info. Thanks to all the old factory literature I had for GMCs from the '60s, I was able to help Jolly with a lot of the info on that site. So it wasn't until after Jolly created the info site that he started the forum in January 2000. If you're a newer member who hasn't been to the info site yet, be sure and check it out -- lots of good stuff there.
The first photo in the slide show on the opening page is of my '62 Suburban and the '66 pickup I restored, now owned by Clyde in South Carolina. The second photo shows Jolly's rescue truck. There are 14 more photos after those first two. One of them shows the trucks that showed up for Jolly's 10 year Jamboree. Here's another view of those trucks. The one on the left was Rick Rusconi's awesome short-wide '62 with the 401 V6, now owned by Dave "RustyNut" Schlager in St. Charles, MO. Rusty drove it home from Rick's place in Elk Grove, CA, with no problems other than losing one hubcap.
