HISTORY
An all-new clean sheet redesign of General Motors' Chevrolet and
GMC�brand�C/K-Series pickups d�buted in mid-1972 for the 1973�model
year. Development of the new third-generation trucks began in 1968
with vehicle components undergoing simulated testing on computers
before the first�prototype�pickups were even built for real world
testing.�The redesign was revolutionary in appearance at the time,
particularly the cab, departing from typical American pickup truck
designs of the era. Aside from being near twins, the Chevrolet and
GMC pickups looked like nothing else on the road.�The
third-generation trucks are colloquially known as the "Square-body"
or "Box-body" generation.�GM's official
"Rounded-Line"�moniker�highlighted the pickup's rounded styling
cues that were incorporated into the design. This included rounded
windshield corners, rounded corners of the cab roof, rounded-corner
doors which cut high into the cab roof eliminating roof height,
slanted front fenders, and rounded pickup box corners which allowed
for rounded�wraparoundtaillamps, a first for GM pickups. The design
also featured strong distinctive curved�shoulderlines�which rounded
out below the�beltline.�The curved shoulderline continued across
the back tailgate on Chevrolet Fleetside and GMC Wideside models.
However, the low slope of the hood and rectangular front end of the
truck originated the "square/box-body" nickname, which was
propagated through truck�magazines�and�word of mouth. SOURCE:
