This could be a real jewel. I don't know as it isn't my truck.

1972 GMC, has compressor for Jack hammer, outriggers, has small spindle winch for pulling power lines. We have owned this truck over 40 years. we have never licensed it because it has never been off of our farm. It will also lift around 9000 lbs.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Here's a link to a 1972 C50 that my uncle is selling. Solid truck that comes in handy!

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Interesting that this has a pusher axle with Dayton style wheels. Don't think I have seen that before on a truck with dish style wheels.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Thanks to this post, I just bought this truck.
:metal::metal:

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Nice score!!

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Impressive truck.

Keep us posted on it.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

That truck looks to have been stretched and the steer axle from another truck added as a pusher, although I couldn't find a splice, or a double frame in th pictures.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Good looking truck.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Road trip!
Enjoy...

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Thanks. I'm excited.

Thanks, will do.

Thanks.

Yeah, I'm actually thinking I can get it transported cheaper than me going and getting it. We'll see.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Congratulations. I really like that truck.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Thanks. I really wanted a '60 or a '61, but my desired year range was 1960 to 1972, and this looked so clean and unmolested I just had to pull the trigger.
Currently trying to figure out how to get it from Kansas to Florida.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

You going to keep it period correct?

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Well.....Yes and no. The first order of business is shortening it and putting a pickup bed on it. I am repainting it the same color, I may upgrade the braking system, and I will be getting rid of the RH-5 rims.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Are you giving it a new home, or helping it find one.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Sorry, I would love to have it and it's my color but I don't need it. That thing looks like a buy to me. I looked at it for ten minutes designing a camper on the back. :lol:

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

I really want a 60-61 GMC 1-ton with those 8 hole buds and eyebrow hood. There was one I found out in CA on CL a few years back... beautiful shape, color white, would've been a cool truck to have.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

I believe those 8-hole Budds are 18 Inch, in comparison to the standard 4-hole 16 Inch. Now 18 Inch Tires have regained popularity, but not sure how safe those old wheels would be. I would say that they are at least 2-piece.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Arrived in St. Petersburg this past Sunday. I am so excited to get started on it, and grateful to Warrens69GMC for posting it.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Enough with the bragging already. I'm jealous! That thing is clean. Congrats.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Nice! Glad you got her home, she's beautiful :metal:

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

It really is in excellent condition!

Thanks.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Found this on eBay https://www.ebay.com/itm/1962-Chevro...8-ad15c10b0dfb

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Interesting truck.

In pretty good condition too.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

IF I was closer, I would definitely be in on this but I am sure shipping would kill the deal to get something like this over to California.
Someone please buy this and sell me the extra fenders!

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Bill I thought you might like that truck.Txagincali where did you see extra fenders? Pat

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

It says so in the description, shows one of them in the pictures. It seems really steep for a project with no engine or trans. I'd maybe consider $7k if it had both, Cincy isn't all that far from me, a few hours.

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

Not sure on the build quality from the photos shown, but you can get a 4 door cab with closing doors (no body work done) from RTech starting at $15,000 (per their website. So $7,000 seems pretty reasonable, at least to me since I've been in the market for that a while.

$1k in wheels and tires, drop some cost if you don't want the chassis. I can see the value there, but yea if you pick it up and don't need the extra set of fenders and extensions, give me a shout!

Re: The Ulitmate Craigslist find thread
 

One thing I did notice though if you look, the front fenders don't have the door cutout to fit the extensions. Its Rocker, firewall and wheel well adjustment/finessing. Not a huge chore for someone capable, but it looks like it was a full suburban front instead of a C50 front firewall to start the build.
