Looks very restore-able. These are cool buses and easy to drive. It doesn't say, but should be a 6-71 Detroit.

Two-fur special! $1900.

https://portland.craigslist.org/yam/...757616760.html

We have a 1968 & 1970 C50 truck project that needs someone to finish it as we don't have time right now to do it. Combine these 2 together and you will have a nice vintage farm truck or you can even make a stunning 4 door vacation or hauling rig out of it (see example photo).
The red 1968 has a 1977 chevy 350 engine with a 4spd transmission with a 2 spd rear end. The tires are in very good condition with 900 X 20 on the rear and 8.25 X 20 on the front. The engine ran when we started this project 2 years ago. It also has power steering, side tanks and a seat tank. It does have rust and we have already fixed some of that. Much of the work on the fenders is already done and the hood is good except for 1 small dent on the corner. The heater box has been repaired so it works easily. Door panels, frame, and mirrors are already painted and ready to install. Glass is good. Both trucks GVW rating is 19500. We have some LMC parts that we ordered for this project that includes windshield weather stripping, door weather stripping, temp control lever and knob, heater seal kit and a filler neck grommet. We also have a Truck Chassis Service Manual for each truck for their respective year.
The gold 1970 has a great engine (starts first time) which could be a 366?? It also has a 4spd transmission with a 2 spd rear end. It has a 16' long steel diamond plate bed with a 2 ram hoist which works good. The bed has been painted. It also has stake pockets in case you want side racks. This one does not have power steering. The tires on this truck are fairly well worn. I believe the glass is good in this truck too. We have used this truck to haul dirt but the brakes will need some attention before you would want to go too far with it. This one has more rust areas on it than the 1968 so we have the good parts of it to repair the red truck, as you can see by the hole in the front right fender.
We have one truck in Newberg and the other in Amity. They would need to be hauled as they are not road ready. Take everything we have for them both for $1900.00.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Looks to be a nice 51 $4000.

https://portland.craigslist.org/clk/...744143000.html

Currently not working because the motor just threw a rod on me, but I have another running 235 in hand and ready to go in, just don't have the time or muscle/equipment to currently do it. For me the truck is worth $7000 if I had the engine in it and running, so as-is I'm asking $4000 given the other upgrades included (listed below). The relatively newer dump body alone is worth that. Bed is fully functional, hydraulics/PTO good.

Brand new tires put on over the summer and it blew up on way home with em, so they have about 10 miles on em!

Other new upgrades this summer include:
Converted from single to dual carb with two brand new Willy's carbs on Offenhauser intake and Fenton headers
New dual exhaust pipes from Exhaust Shop & Tire Center in Longview
Head valve job with new bushings
New gaskets

The replacement engine and transmission in hand is a later 50s model 235 out of a running Apache (upgraded to V8/turbo 400).

Brakes worked great at time of use this summer. Come take a look!

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

WOW! 1931 1 1/2 ton truck. $5500. Be the only one on your block with one.

https://portland.craigslist.org/wsc/...743042005.html

Selling a 1931 Chevy 1 1/2 Ton dually truck.

All is original:
- 131" wheel base
- Straight six engine (194 cubic inches)
- Original rims
- Original axels
- Original cab and fenders/ running boards
- Original mechanical brakes run to all 4 wheels
- Original gauges
- Original headlights
- Still has wood paneling on the inside!!

- Not running at (slowly getting the motor to turn over by hand)
- Truck does roll
- No bed, gas tank, or tail lights

- Took it to the MVD to get a bonded title because the original title was lost some years ago in my family. The MVD told me I would have to put a bed and tail lights on it in order to get the bonded title. Needless to say they have never seen a truck this old, but I figured no one will keep a cheap bed and tail lights that I throw on there just to get a bonded title. I can get a dismantled title if you would prefer... other wise a bill of sale is how it will most likely be sold. This will be a great restore project or use for original parts and pieces!!!

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

That thing's cool as Hell, just needs a sheet of 5/8" plywood (bed) and some cheapie farm trailer tail lights wired up. Easy-peasy.

He says all of them are for sale but the GMC was featured in the ad.

1953 GMC Model 620 Diesel

This would make for a beautiful original restoration, don't see many twin screws around here.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

I agree, would be a great restoration project.

Looks to be real solid as it is.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

why does it show wyoming for location yet its in upstate ny listings . ?

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

To increase his chances of a buyer? Ask the OP of the CL ad.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

well thats 3/4 the way across the country . so even if i was in the market the shipping is crazy money .

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Tell the guy that if he brings it to NY, where the truck is advertised at, you will take it. If you were to want it anyway.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Strange... Was scanning through CL out West last week for trucks and these popped up in an ad https://inlandempire.craigslist.org/...762536947.html

I thought it was for the one I posted above until I went back and looked. I noticed some guys post harder to find stuff across the country to draw more attention...

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Nice '71 C-60 there in WA state.

That '70 C-80 would be at my house pretty quick if it were closer, lol.

Says 6 Cylinder Gas, most likely a 478 V-6. Has a 5-Speed Trans, 2-Speed Rear and also has Air Brakes. Great price to boot.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

20 min up the road from me . . . i know a few heavy wrecker tow truck guys who can haul it . drop deck low boy trailer and she be rollin .

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Bring it home!!

Looks very Restore-able.

Let us know if you buy it.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

I checked in one of my 70-80 Chevy Manuals and although my book is dated '67 the HM-80 states the standard engine is a 401M and the optional a 478M. If it's the original engine still in there, it looks like it will be a Magnum. I always figured the 70 had the 401 and the 80 a 478, but let us know which one if you buy it.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

dont need it when i have this one already waiting for a engine . http://67-72chevytrucks.com/vboard/s...&highlight=gmc

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Interesting truck.

But that's a first. I never saw the "Air Brake" type pedal used on the Clutch side before.

The Air Brake pedal will say "Air Brake" on it.

Would love to see a close-up shot of that Clutch pedal.

As unique as they are, I could never understand the idea of them though, lol.

Although my foot never slipped off my brake pedal, I always had it in my mind that it could, especially driving with wet boots now and then like we would.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

It seems to have a clutch pedal but it also seems to have an automatic shifter ? An Allison was available on '66 M80's.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

I noticed that myself, but the ad states "Manual" Trans. ??

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

possible dump bed up/down control stand ?

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Well, I just E-mailed the seller and it is an Auto. Still don't understand the "Clutch" pedal and he didn't say. Also asked him about the Engine and he believes it is a 366. Which being a '66, would be the first year for it.

Not a CL find, but rather ebay. This truck is on the wrong coast for me or else I would likely have bid already. So much potential here!
