Chevrolet Turbo Titan III

The Chevrolet Turbo Titan III was a gas turbine powered concept cab-over heavy truck that General Motors designed and built as a working prototype in 1965. It was shown to the public with a matching custom trailer of stainless steel during the 1965 season of the 1964 New York World's Fair. The truck was built on a conventional Chevrolet tilt-cab chassis first marketed in 1960, with a fiberglass and steel cab, prominent air intakes for its engine, headlights and turn signals that retracted into the body, and an interior with aircraft-like gauges. Its GT-309 turbine was derived from the engines of the Firebird concept cars of the 1950s and followed the Turbo Titan I and II prototypes. The prototype was reportedly destroyed in the late 1960s.
