I think it officially dates you to call it a "Class C". I used the term "Class A" at work the other day, and my sysadmin said he didn't think I was that old.
The 67-72 trucks are the next big thing for truck restorers, apparently. the Task Force trucks (55 2nd through 59) are becoming less relevant as the people who remember them die off; plus as a lot of the truck guys get older, they kind of want to get into a truck where it is a lot easier to have power steering, power brakes, independent front suspension, and (gasp) maybe even air conditioning.
That said, 3/4 ton and bigger trucks never hold value like the half ton trucks, because they're usually work trucks anyway and it's hard to get some of the running gear parts for them.
