Still pretty cheap, but I had trucks in that age category, and started buying new ones in 1978........they seemed pretty awesome at the time, but not so much compared to newer stuff.

I love my 04 ram but man the new creature comforts/stereos are bitchin. Not $100k bitchin but still bitchin.
 
Satisfied w/my 86 K-20 6.2 7' flatbed shop truck. Western metal FTW, restoring the 96 F-250 300 I-6, new box, dump kit w/Tommy gate, a whole lot cheaper then the new product. We fix on that stuff daily, it's depressing the cost for such junk. However the average GM trans lives for 150 rounds, T-350 in the day averaged 80k, so there's that.
Disclaimer: I did break down and pop 10k for a 06 F-350 crew/dually/6.0, nice truck, had new heads and studs, 150k miles, a late model for me.
 
Anyone else have this issue w/ non-car movies? In The Queen's Gambit, there was a blue 68 Mustang parked on the street in a very brief shot set in late '66 - annoyed me terribly.

I'm right there with you on this. Any time I see a later model car in a period piece, I wince a little. American Gangster with Denzel Washington and Russel Crowe.....Early scene supposedly in 1968-69 and a '70-71 Challenger in the background.
