Yeah. I still like shortbeds, but I tend to actually use my truck for its intended purpose (not like those lowered 2wd guys! :) ) and I really wish I had the extra space of a long bead. Plus it would make it so much easier to swap in a 40 gallon FI suburban tank to feed my impending 8.1L swap. :metal:

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

Sheesh. 8.1. I thought u were using a vortec motor. Interesting. Is it a diesel?

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

8.1l vortec gasoline motor. Check out member DirtyLarry's squarebody 4x4. That's where I got the inspiration.

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

I didn't know they made an 8.1. I thought it was a 5.7,5.3, and 6.0. Hm Interesting

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

my little 600 dollar find. I have a nice clean body for her ready to go. Love the flat bed

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

Looks good man. What do u plan on for a motor?

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

I have a semi built 375 hp 350 pushing a 700r4 12 bolt rear with a posi. just need to get goin on the 3 link coilover conversion up front and she is ready to rock and roll. I cant stand leaf springs up front. Way to bouncy for me.

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

Yea. Coils have a much smoother ride. Iv heard of guys using large ford or chevy van springs for front ends on acing trucks. Not specifically 60-66 but still. It's the concept

Pick up this 1966 K-10 for 900. Been resting under a tree since 1987.

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

Cool 66 K10, keep us posted on it, want to see more.

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

Ooooooo, big back window! Nice!

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

Very nice man! And what a score for 900 bucks! Sheesh.

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

Whaaaaaat, a big window 4by for $900....... Score! Good luck with your build!

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

Bought this truck without an engine, the previous onwner swears it had a 350. Is there a way to tell if it had a 283 or a 327 from the radiator. It still has the ram horn exhaust, clutch linkage and 420 trans. Thanks, Dave...

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

Been busy with other projects.
Finally had some time to do sum investigating on the 1966 to see if it had a V-8 and what size.
Here's what I found out today.
The last pick shows V8 But is missing sum info...

Hey 66Gilbert,
I see you are from Arizona. On the billed sheet my truck was built in Fremont
& shipped to Olson motors in Williams, AZ.

Everything is together and I'm on the road. I'm starting to collect parts for the top end job the engine is going to need (I think I have bad valve guides or valve seals. Also the engine leaks oil like a sieve.) In the mean time, it gets me to the home improvement center, recycling center and parts store on the weekend.

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

heres my 63 swb 4x4 for now (the p.o. when happy go lucky with his gun and make it his target) picked up this truck for an s10 i paid $800 for. has a 6'' suspension lift and a ridiculous 8'' body lift

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

Holy Mutha! Rip that body lift off and drop down to some 35" tires... or put some 1 ton axles under there.

Cool project.

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

those are the old 44s it now sits on some bald tsl 38s and your right that body lift has gotta go they did the cab mounts awsome but the rest is scrap square tube and its not all cut the same so theres stacks of washers to keep the box level and the rad mount leans at about a 25% angle so itll all be redone

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

May be huge and rough but awesome truck.

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

Very nice...sweet..me likes...

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

The 65 is hard to see at those angles, think we need to see way more of it, engine and interior and all just to be sure it is as nice as it appears.

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

Just picked up, well I have been driving it all over, this nice 1966 K10 SWB stepside. 283, 4 speed.
Nice driving little truck but I need to quit playing and get to work on it.

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

Kool truck I would be driving it too....I like them stepsides too...

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
 

Yo this is an awesome truck! Do you mind telling me what it the paint color code? It appears to be some type of pearl grey...grey is absolutely my favorite color! I was looking for a deep grey that almost looks black...this color is second to none!! The following pics is the reason...meet Project: BigBEN:sumo:...1964 GMC 6500...one of the rarest trucks on this site!:cool:

Re: Post pics. Lets see how many 60-66 4x4 are out there.
